Zappelitos Bathroom Dance Event (Vinyl) / Matovsgarax

The pure joy of life! On his album "Zappelito's Bathroom Dance Event", André Matov manages the feat of transporting us to a thousand places at a thousand times simultaneously. He turns the absurd into reality and leads reality ad absurdum. His wild mix of exotica, Balkan and Klezmer music, mambo, surf, space and prog rock, boogaloo, punk and jazz amounts to an intellectual party music that transforms various aggregate states of the past, between nostalgia and longing, into the bubbling here and now. "Zappelito's Bathroom Dance Event" is a musical speed trip on a children's carousel, where Nino Rota, Yma Sumac, John Zorn, Dick Dale, Goran Bregovic and the band Farmer's Market cheerfully wave to us, without us being able to even vaguely recognise their contours.
