Club Med IV


Kocani Orkestar, Macedonia

This album actually triggered me to do the Club Med series. The Kocani Orkestar is from Macedonia, a small country with borders to Greece. It's actually a Balkan country, semi-Mediteranian. They play an amazing mix of contemporary Jazz and their rootz music with lots of brass and wood. It just brought me down on my knees.

- This is a nice one from the tube to get you acquainted with these guys. I guess "bellyjazz" is not far from the spot.
- The Red Bull song sounds very sexy [17MB.] and you already can hear the bellydance music from Turkey and Lebanon.
- Their "Kocani Orkestar meet Paolo Fresu & Antonello Salis" album is big and comes in two parts of 90MB. each.

Enjoy
