The first Boban i Marko Markovic Orkester album with Marko given free rein in the studio, an opportunity he has seized with gusto. From the irresistible invitation of the opening Romanian dance through to the closing Russian romp through the Bubamara medley, it’s all systems go-go. Whether sipping cocktails in a Belgrade lounge bar, dazzling us with their dexterity inna big-band jazz stylee, soothing us with a soulful ballad or getting down on the funky disco dance-floor, the Orkestar are at home wherever they are. They’re still the best and most innovative Balkan brass band around and, with Marko at the wheel, they’re driving off in new directions, transporting the traditions to the world and bringing the world back home. Like father, like son.
