Charmed

My first music post will focus on a most interesting group. Charming Hostess is a group of multi-instrumentalists and impressive vocalists. I'd label this band under the general genre of World Music even though such a plain description doesn't do them justice. Anyway, instead of me talking about them, here are links to some songs and their website. Check it out!

Dali Tzerni, a wild and upbeat song with an irregular meter:

Death is a Job, Bosnian resistance poetry sung a capella over beat-boxing.
