Bonimentieff by Vagalatschk

With BONIMENTIEFF, Vagalatschk creates a down to earth hyper-dancing folklore forged in the energy from the Gypsy musical themes, the Afro-American gRooves, and the pUNK rage. Thus GRUNK was born.
After eight years of existence and more than four hundred concerts, Vagalatschk composed BONIMENTIEFF with the intent to keep the audience dancing.

GRUNK could be the sound of an ancient animal: a deep, hoarse cry at dawn, after a night of intense efforts. GRUNK is the new sound of Vagalatschk, music made to wake up this ancient and deep desire to move your body from the moment the rhythm starts.
BONIMENTIEFF is a milestone in Vagalatschk’s work to create demanding and popular dance music. The group has integrated the rhythm and groove of Afro-American music of the 1970s to its own rock-based gypsy music of Eastern Europe.
Beyond the rage with which Vagalatschk plays, a rage that makes you want to stand up and dance, the band’s main approach remains gypsy with its way of blending any invigorating musical themes in its own culture and aesthetic : BONIMENTIEFF includes melodies evoking Macedonia and Romania, which are then placed upon a foundation of seventies funk groove, as well as a melody from Ethiopia with its stimulating rhythm that makes you dance.
