ABOUT
Formed back in 2006 by Belgian DJs Sam Rabam and Typsy Gypsy, the infamous Balkan Hotsteppers released trendsetting mixtapes on the internet. Combining and remixing modern beats with classical Balkan, gypsy, and klezmer melodies and mashing it up with hip-hop, they soon became a standard in the ever-growing BalkanBeats scene.

Since then, they have played all over: Croatia, Poland, Belgium, France, Holland, Ireland, the UK, Denmark, Germany, Switzerland, Hungary, Romania, Turkey, Spain, Portugal, the Czech Republic... Their unique blend will take you on an eclectic trip to the Balkans and beyond. Balkan Mashups, Klezmer Beats, Gypsy Punk, Russian Ska, Romano Hip Hop, Yugoslavian Brass Bangers... Party!!!
