After pioneering the concept of Balkan clubbing Shantel moves on to the next level and releases DISKO PARTIZANI, a blueprint for a new brand of festive, Balkan pop. This is the sound of new Europe, centered in the middle of the old continent, incorporating influences from the emerging new frontier which stretches all the way to Mitteleuropa, the South East, Greece, Turkey and beyond. The album features great performances by a host of musicians from southeast Europe and by Shantel himself, who also appears on lead vocals, graving several tracks with an unexpected, elegant deadpan delivery.
