PSEUDO – EMIGRANT CABARET [Music for wasted jumpy fingers]
Foltin in short, is an unusual cast, whose music is hard to define, and every attempt to insert it into a musical genre would not be very successful. Foltin’s music is surreal, passionate and witty, characterized with a frantic dance atmosphere, which is achieved with the fast Macedonian rhythm. Even though they use standard musical elements, their approach in creating the atmosphere is unpredictable and above all, original. In their musical identity the Anglo - Macedonian hybrid, is a collision between the East and West. Their language is an imaginary mixture or phonetic imitation of the world languages like: Spanish, French, Romanian, Portuguese... Their “spontaneous Esperanto”.
Foltin describe themselves as pseudo - emigrant cabaret, and often their concerts are turning into real performances. It is not a strange thing to imagine all that when you consider the fact that they have worked on a music for THEATRE PERFORMANCES, in which they are famous for using the ready-made “instruments” or creating ambient sound with objects from unmusical primer function, construction of sound sculptures and installations.
They took part in many musical and theatre FESTIVALS in Macedonia, Croatia, Italy, Austria, Germany, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Albania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Belgium, France..
The group exists since 1997 and so far they have published five albums:
* OUT RE-MER *
* ARCHIMED *
* DONKEY HOT *
* LO-LEE-TA-TOO *
* OVA TRANSPLANTIRANA MASHINA ZA CHUKANJE DOSEGA NE TIPKALA LJUBOVNO PISMO *
