MY FAVORUTE SONG IS REFUGEE..

London-based collective Oi Va Voi makes it hard to pin them down -- while their music easily allows for such diverse labels as "dance," "rock," "electronica," and "world music" to be applied to them, none of these labels describes the sound of the band to the fullest. Oi Va Voi was able to achieve this through a rather unique combination of cultural and ethnic backgrounds of its bandmembers, with each of them bringing something original to the table. Rock & roll and Jewish music, dance beats and klezmer, Eastern European horns and trip-hop sensibilities -- all these elements co-exist in the music of Oi Va Voi, creating a dense and exciting whole that sounds like little else out there.

About this Music

Any indie band who received two nominations in the latest BBC Radio 3 Awards for World Music without any official CD release to their name had to have something going for them. And so it comes to pass, as Oi Va Voi's extraordinary debut finally reaches retail. Oi Va Voi have come up with a debut album of uncommon grace, diversity and beauty. They perform it with the confidence and agility that suggests there's plenty more where that came from. Outcasted. 2006.
