Vinyl Record DakhaBrakha - The Best (Part 1) [LP]

DakhaBrakha is a legendary ethnic band founded by actors of the Kyiv independent theater Dakh. It is a unique phenomenon in the Ukrainian music industry. They have created their own musical world, in which they have mixed elements of soul, blues, hip-hop, minimalism, downtempo, folk, electronic, experimental and ethnic music – and called it "ethno-chaos". In the band's compositions, you will hear a unique fusion of Ukrainian, Belarusian and Crimean Tatar folk motifs combined with songs of different nations, and all this is complemented by a theatrical performance.
