LET THE FANFARE BEGIN!

- "What's the best way to represent a culture?"
- "With music of course!"
- "So why not create the fanfare of my country?"

After this vodka-influenced conversation, Mat Schulz, the curator of the Krakow Unsound Festival, sent Kadebostan directly to Eastern Europe to the little-known capital of Minsk, to meet a band that would become the musicians for his new fanfare...
Rational Diet!
6 bloody musicians coming from different parts of Europe : Romania, Kazakstan, Russia, Poland... playing violin, cello, piano, accordion, horns, guitar, banjo.....

The National Fanfare of Kadebostany started here.

A couple of weeks of seamless recording / rehearsal and multicultural bonding sessions between Minsk's "Vodka Delight" and Geneva's "Red Wine Paradise" have given birth to a unique organic / electronic middle eastern band.
Under the spell of their common love for discovering new ways of expression, Kadebostan and his new-found orchestra have composed a new blueprint for non-electronic techno, hard-hitting yet welcoming like a village feast, cutting-edge yet simple like a long-anticipated hug. Violin, cello, piano, accordion, saxophone, bassoon, guitar, banjo, boom boom boom, it's definitely a party in the country of Kadebostany, a hypnotizing experience whose epiphany might well be a return to the traditional party spirit.

The warmth, power and high energy of this organized chaos translates best on stage where the 7 piece band celebrates life with smiles & sweat inducing performances. Their aim on stage :  
Make the people sweat as if a massive traditional Kadebostany village feast. Hypnotize them and turn everybody into a state where they will all buy a one-way train ticket to Kadebostany... Witness the live premiere at the Unsound Festival in Krakow, Poland, 22.10.2009.

PS : The band doesn't necessarily need electricity to play...so don't be surprised if you bump into them playing in the streets. The compact version of the band is Kadebostan and 2 musicians, and that rocks. The full experience is, well, the full band, and that's 7 people on the road...it rocks even more!
