Mahala Rai Banda are back with Ghetto Blasters, new release on Asphalt Tango

[news]

News in from Junction 2 Music : New album from Mahala Rai Banda. Romania’s most gifted musicians live in two villages: Clejani, just south-west of Bucharest, the village of Taraf de Flaidouks string players and Zece Prajini, in Moldavia, where live the brass players of Fanfare Ciocarlia. It is in these two villages, lost in the dust, mud and ice, that you find the crème de la crème, the half-genius half-rascal instrumentalists capable of stirring up a wedding party with a single solo munched at supersonic speed.
