European folk music dub

Post by sonic »

Hello,

Last week I was at a Klezmer concert in Groningen (in the Netherlands).

Before the concert there was a dj who played some reggae tunes. One song he played was dub but with a European folk music melody. I think I heard somekind of bagpipe (but it wasn't a Scottish melody) or maybe a small flute.

Now I regret not asking the dj for the song title and artist.

Does anyone have a clue what it might be?

The melody sounded Southern or Eastern European to me.

Sounds like it could be something from the works of Twinkle Brothers and Trebunie-Tutki, a Polish folk group. I think they made three albums together. I don't know about flutes and bagpipes, though.

Or it could be

"Suns of Arqa" : http://www.sunsofarqa.co.uk/

or "Peeni Waali" : http://www.mensch3000.ch/

Thanks for the suggestions. I think it's Suns of Arqa, I'm now playing a compilation cd from this group and some tracks are very similar
