Skakavci - Skakavci

Review by Carminatee Peonie

Skakavci's self-titled album is a delightful mix of Balkan folk melodies and modern pop sensibilities. The band's unique sound is a result of their fusion of traditional instruments such as the accordion and tambura with electronic beats and synths.

The album opens with the upbeat track "Sedamdeset i Dva," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The catchy chorus and lively instrumentation make it difficult to resist dancing along. The album also features slower, more introspective tracks such as "Ljubav," which showcases the band's ability to create emotive and powerful ballads.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Kolo," which features a pulsing beat and an infectious melody that is sure to get stuck in your head. The band's use of traditional Balkan rhythms and instruments on this track is particularly impressive.
