A good way to start the weekend. Found this scrolling around in the music app on Härnu. Wondering how typical this sound is of Bulgaria?

Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised too. The music feed tends to throw things up that I'd never in a million years think of seeking out. Pretty cool :-)

ZyxtBerk is Matthew Berk, ex-EVP of engineering from Marchex. Brilliant guy and a great guy too.

Good to know. He also sent a message to his Harnu connection saying only "Crikey". :-)

Hi guys,

The music is definitely typical to one region in Bulgaria. This is a Bulgarian group singing "Karakachan" songs. However, I am not completely sure if they sing in Bulgarian :))))

You can find a lot of info about the group here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KxhMY6HVQY.

Enjoy!

Thanks for the info Petya! Had never heard of "Karakachan" before. Sorry. So, what music is popular in Bulgaria just now - preferably a Bulgarian artist :-)

pretty much typical. However you need to know that there are several folklore regions in Bulgaria, which are quite different. So this song represent only one of them, not all.
