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.

Word to Your Ukrainian Mother: DakhaBrakha and "Carpathian Rap"
ДахаБраха, or DakhaBrakha, brings us our random tune for today, called Карпатський реп, or Karpatskyi rep, or Carpathian Rap. A band from Ukraine, they present avant-garde music in the styles of several different areas of the world, including the Ukraine, India, Arabia, Africa, Russia and Australia, complete with instrumentation from those areas. DakhaBrakha's name is a combination of two Ukrainian words meaning "give" and "take." All the groups members are graduates of the Kiev National University of Culture and Arts, and DakhaBrakha was originally a project of the avant-garde theater project called Dakh. This theatricality is embodied in their shows, including their on-stage costuming. Karpatskyi rep can be found on their 2014 album Light.
Listen to songs like this and more on the KUNM Global Music Show every Monday night from 10 pm - 1 am Mountain Standard Time. Live streaming, program information and the two-week digital archive can be found at http://www.kunm.org.
