|   |  Kottarashky is a 21st century digital master musician with his     |   |
|   |  hands sunk deep in the past - vintage Balkan field recordings,     |   |
|   |  classic jazz and blues, psychedelic sounds, club beats and         |   |
|   |  extraordinary, archetypal Gypsy voices, guttural shouts and        |   |
|   |  lyrical laments are all molded and thrown into new shapes. The     |   |
|   |  songs of his debut album ôOpa Hey!ö sound like tales told by a     |   |
|   |  people who have all the time in the world: time to contemplate,    |   |
|   |  enjoy, engage and dream; to take pleasure in unexpected twists     |   |
|   |  and turns; to be inspired by the details and vividness of          |   |
|   |  marginal existence.                                                |   |
|   |                                                                     |   |
|   |  Kottarashky is an architect by vocation, which perhaps explains    |   |
|   |  the palpable sense of place in his music. Summer trips to small    |   |
|   |  villages and the marginal regions of Bulgaria were key source of   |   |
|   |  inspiration for the album, and his music samples a broad palette   |   |
|   |  of sources and influences - enigmatic field recordings by artists  |   |
|   |  unknown alongside Boris Kovac, Les Yeux Noir, Fanfare Ciocarlia,   |   |
|   |  Jony Iliev and compelling Hungarian singer Mitsou.                 |   |
|   |                                                                     |   |
|   |  The resulting digital pick-and-mix hits you like a panoramic       |   |
|   |  puzzle of sounds collected and put together from a nightÆs walk    |   |
|   |  through the streets of Sofia.                                      |   |
|   |                                                                     |   |
|   |  It is an ethno-music born of a city lacking cultural identity      |   |
|   |  that is torn between contemporary European globalism, Balkan       |   |
|   |  provincialism and a living if largely forgotten folk tradition.    |   |
|   |  ItÆs a music inspired by that environment but also in reaction to  |   |
|   |  it, a journey down roads less travelled, through the Bulgarian     |   |
|   |  backwoods and back via the laptop to the 21st century.             |   |
|   |                                                                     |   |
