Hey y'all, so this is without a doubt one of my favorite genres. Turns out Russian music already had a rythmic tradition that sounded a lot like ska before the first official Russian ska artists began during the late days of the soviet union. So it sounds really natural, and with the gravelly russian singing, emphasis on the accordion, and dramatic eastern European melodies, it's really cool. Please give it a listen. Maybe I'll post more later, but I'm gonna post one of my favorites in a link here.
