I  Agree!
EXCELLENT!   The more I hear them, the more I like them.  Thanx RP!   
ILIKE IT!  It is the first time that I have heard of them.  Thanx RP!

Hmm, something about the accordion , electronica, down beat, makes it sound about as boring as all the other songs in this genre.

First time I've heard another song from off this cd played here! They are all great (in a weird and different way)!!{#Dancingbanana}

Maybe change tango for bandoneon, or how the device is called? Apart from this, what I hear rather sounds like dub and stuff like that....

Slight echoe of some occassional Grace Jones tune also?

I'll take The Gotan Project over this anyday.....

Hm, this song is just a complete mess. The reggae/funky bass line with the Balkan/gypsy style violin and the weird laid back beats....no....really no...I'll give it a 1.

It's not about how tidy it is, it's about how much you like it: 7.  Mind you: I'm a right-brain — are you a left-brain?

Sounds like a Cirque du Soleil soundtrack..... acrobats anyone?

This song played just before I toggled the radio power and fell asleep; but I noted the time and looked it up this morning.  Fascinating song.  I also first thought harmonica, but remembered the wonderful sounds that an accordian can make.  But it's the fusion of musical styles that had me dreaming last night.
A Martin Denny Production...?
i stopped by to see how many would be on this page - not a one! so here's three

Yeah, that pretty much killed the song dead.
complex dub riddims and the feel of a french coffee shop make for a palatable tune

I just couldn't go quite that high.
This is really nice: quite authentic Dub/Reggae "riddim" and bass, original "off beat", mixed up with unorthodox folk melody. I like it!!

beautiful harmonica
lame tune and it's not a harmonica
At first I thought this was some lost Yello track Bill had unearthed. Not bad at all.
Uhmm... *scratches head* Ermm... *pauses* No. *rates it a 2*
Hell! This is pretty cool music. Out for shopping...
Still luv'n this CD!!
The Muppets ballroom?

Bounce is good. This world could use more bounce.
This set really sucks. But then again. It is radio paradise. Land of the obscure.
sounds obviously european. reminds me of days in Paris...
viva le bounce!

No, it does not.
That wisping sound at the start of this song sounded a bit like the end of Radiohead's Paranoid Android..
I'm not really into this weird bouncy song at all. It is an incongruent mess.

Paris et les jolies femmes....
I was liking this up until the "bouncy" part.
Tango anyone?
Bleah on the bouncy
Uh, well, uhm . . . sheesh.
I kinda like it (and normall, this sort of music is not my cup of tea). I think of this style of music as more of a musical palette-cleanser than anything. It can't be taken seriously, but it certainly has its purpose.
soundtrack to Everything is Illuminated?

Presicely what I experienced. The beat and arrangement is just great, why spoil it with some 80:s art of noise-ish sampling?
RP even has a specific emoticon for this song:

Pretty traditional gypsy/romanian beat, but some cool sound effects. A little bit of a subtle Shaft wanka wanka beat going on as an undercurrent about half-way through. Good for every once in a while. EDIT: Wow, you must have heard the same thing!
