Ever wonder what ethno-chaos sounds like? Today’s Global Notes will provide the answer. We’ll preview the Thursday night Radio M sponsored show by the Ukrainian band Dahka Brahka, who describe their sound as “ethno-chaos.”
The four piece ensemble uses traditional Ukrainian folk music as its foundation for experimentation into fusion. The result is soulful, haunting and diverse instrumentation; from Arabic and African instruments to Australian and Indian.
