Boom Shakalaka Presents: Baltik Bass vol. 2 FREE DOWNLOAD

Go to the soundcloud page to download!

In 2010, we presented the world with a new genre of electronic folk music called Baltik Bass. By 2011 we had created enough of the new sound to put together a compilation (Baltik Bass Vol. 1), which was well received both among clubbers and folk music enthusiasts.

After the success of the first compilation, we are proud to present the long awaited sequel, and a new batch of electro-folk based on musical traditions from Northern Europe and the Baltic sea region. The second compilation takes the signature sound a step further. Whereas the first volume was almost exclusively based on traditional “pelimanni music”, volume 2 includes collaborations with more contemporary folk music orchestras, such as folk punk group Tundramatiks and Jaakko Laitinen & Väärä Raha, who in their music blend Finnish adult folk pop with gypsy traditions from the Balkans. The sound is overall more electronic, which was a conscious decision and natural progression for the music according to DJs Emil and Hermanni, who are mostly responsible for the production on the compilation.

Apart from the bands mentioned above, the compilation features a wide variety of folk musicians - ranging from Swedish folk music superstars Hedningarna and Finnish accordion champions Antti Paalanen and Markku Lepistö to Finland Swedish folk group Sammuls and children’s music band Fröbelin Palikat.

Boom Shakalaka: Summer Club

Boom Shakalaka is hosting a club this summer every Thursday in Helsinki (Kuudes Linja). Second time around already tonight! If you're in the area, stop by!

In related news, due to the massive success of the new genre Baltik Bass we launched last week our Soundcloud downloads keep running out. So here's a solid direct link to a 320k mp3 of the promo track from the upcoming release 'Boom Shakalaka presents: Baltik Bass vol 1':

Dj Emil vs Kiharakolmio - Riddim and Culture (320k mp3)

Baltik Bass: DJ Emil vs. Kiharakolmio - Riddim And Culture

Having musically been a few times around the world, we, the Boom Shakalaka team, have also become more aware of our own musical heritage. The finnish, scandinavian, nordic and baltic region has a rich folk music tradition with nice bouncy accordeon rhythms and beautiful fiddle harmonies. To make this material more suitable for the club, we started making remixes of finnish folk music, which we got some great feedback from. One thing lead to another and finally we realised we have a new genre on our hands, which we decided to call Baltik Bass, drawing from the musical traditions of the countries around the Baltic Sea. Here is a first official promotional track, free to download, from the upcoming Maasto Records release Boom Shakalaka presents: Baltik Bass vol. 1. Enjoy!
