They Got Brass Ones: Kočani Orkestar and "Kalino Mome"

Our random song for today is by the Kočani Orkestar, a Republic of North Macedonian Romani brass band. The band takes Balkan brass band styles that are descended from Ottoman army brass bands, along with gypsy tunes, Turkish rhythms, and a little bit of Latin styles, and really funks it up. You may recognize their music from the movie Borat - a song was used without their authorization. This song, Kalino Mome, can be heard on their 2008 CD The Ravished Bride.
