RotFront - Sovietoblaster
From the forthcoming "Emigrantski Raggamuffin"-LP.
After 5 years of the band's existence we finally knew we were ready... in April 2008 we went to the Phlexton Studio with Kraans De Lutin, who produced our first album.
"Sovietoblaster" is a story of a DJ who goes to the Eastern Europe searching for the old records on the flea-markets, taking a train from Vladivostok to Moscow, getting drunk for 7 days and nights in the dining car, spinning there the vinyls he just bought, and falling in love with the Dancing Queen from Kiev, Ukraine.

Konsonans Retro - Freilachs Nr. 5
The funkiest brass band from the Eastern Europe today! Forget all the sad and dull klezmer served to you recently, dig this - a family band from Kodyma, Ukraine - they learned their repertoire straight from their fathers who used to play in the mixed jewish-ukrainian-moldovan wedding bands before the World War II - these guys stay faithfull to those original tunes and arrangements. This is the unpolished, authentic roots music at its best! Featured on the newest Russendisko compilation "Ukraine Do Amerika".

Perkalaba - Boogay
Raw power from the Carpathian mountains - crazy hutzuls with a tsimbl and a horn section playing their very personal take on reggae and ska, doing so with the intencity of The Stooges - and, seeing their singer in action, I bet Iggy Pop would be wondering where to get the same drugs.Both their albums are strongly recommended - absolutely essential listening!

GOLEM - Train Across Ukraine
New Golem record (to be released on JDub in February 2009) is hot! Playing at the weddings every weekend, this band from New York knows how to rock without electric guitars or computer beats. The bands sound is tighter than ever, and the album features mainly Golem's own songs and less coverversions. The highlights include a klezmer analogue of "Je T'Aime.. Moi Non Plus" (sung in Yiddish), and the title song "Train Across Ukraine", among others.

Poimannye Muravyedy - Marlboro
Imagine Molotov would come not from Mexico, but from Russia - that's the fastest way to describe how the band with one of the most exotic names in the world ("Poymanie Muraviedi" means "The Trapped Anteaters") sounds. Musically it's latinocore with a shot of russian melancholy, lyrically 80% is about sex, 10% about revolution, and the rest 10 about sex and revolution.One of their revolutionary strategies is giving away their album as MP3s from their official website.Go and download it NOW! And feel free to donate, the bank details in Russian can be found on the same page.
