Boom Pam

from the label that brought you rio baile funk, shantel's 'bucovina' and the balkan beat box cds, essay recordings now present boom pam's self-titled debut. magic surf guitars from tel aviv kicked by tuba and drums on an ecstatic mediterranean balkan trip. if tarantio and kusturica were to make a movie together - boom pam would be the soundtrack. when they slide in and out of 'middle eastern' scales and in to waltzes that ride the tuba bellowing um-pa-pa um-pa-pa, the dance floor goes nuts galloping along the beat and jumping up and down like pogo sticks.
