A blog about world and global music from a guy who co-hosts the KUNM Global Music Show, 89.9 FM Albuquerque/Santa Fe, http://www.kunm.org. I post one song a day, with reflections on the music, life, and whatever else comes into my mind.

Six Feet Under: Orkestar Zirkonium and "Bury Your Dead"
Today's song is by Orkestar Zirkonium, an American mobile brass band based in Seattle inspired by the music of the Balkans, particularly that of the Eastern European Romani. Inspired by some of the greats, including Fanfare Ciocarlia, Kočani Orkestar, Goran Bregović, Boban Marković and others, they play music from Bulgaria, Serbia, Macedonia and India as well as their own original dance tunes. This song, Bury Your Dead, can be found on their debut, self-titled release (2008).
