"One of the hidden treasures of London is the range of talent that exists on the folk and acoustic scene that rarely get the acclaim they deserve. Three London based bands that excel at performing Eastern European/Balkan Music are Szapora, Mukka and Beskydy, each of whom are worth looking out for. Nine strong Beskydy perform songs and tunes from across Eastern Europe and beyond, in fact looking at the sources on their cd listing is almost like a tour around that part of Europe, from Macedonia to Hungary via Galicia and Bulgaria and taking a detour through Slovakia. The bands name itself comes from the range of mountains that run through the centre of former Czechoslovakia which according to the band has heavily influenced their musical choices whilst they turn their hand to music from a range of sources (excellantly). The first track is a Macedonian song, Jovano, Jovanke (click here to hear the song) and the range of Joanna Fosters vocal skills are further displayed in the three Slovakian songs that make up track 4, from the slow Janosik to the more up beat cheery Anicka Dusicka and A Ja Taka Dzivocka although Foster and the band manage to intertwine the tunes with sufficient skill so the songs merge as one. Again Track 9 is a duet with Accordian player, Peter Murphy, joining Foster on the Macedonian song Iz Dolu, along with some damned fine fiddling. The range of Beskydys musical skills are illustrated well by the instrumental tracks ranging from the delightful Slovakian Waltzes (Track 5) to the slightly more manic Tropanka from Bulgaria (track 10) and onto the ordered upbeat and furious synthesis between sax, fiddle and accordian that is Tantz, Tantz Yiddelekh (a wonderful Galician Jewish tune), yet again garunteed to result in limb movement, a delightful fusion of fiddles and saxaphone, furiously creating a wonderful atmosphere one that demands a physical response. One very minor complaint is the sleeve of the CD, it would be nice (or do I just lead a very shallow empty life) to have some information/lyrics or even translations of the songs, something about the origins of the tracks. That said its more than possible for bands with large bank accounts to produce nice extensive sleeves but not so easy for bands whose talents lie in their music rather than some slick marketing agencies. It would be impossible to identify one part of this cd that could be said to stand out more than the rest. The band have produced an album that is thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish - the question that comes to the fore when listening to this is when is the follow up going to be available? "

"We were planning our wedding from Chicago, so the logistics were pretty daunting. After interviewing a couple of DJs via zoom we were getting worried that we wouldn't find a good fit. Within 5 minutes of talking with Straker, we were immediately at ease and knew this was exactly who we needed for our event, and he didn't disappoint. He truly made the difference in making it a great day!"

"Hired for a small corporate event. I had a great time watching my colleagues lose their minds. If you want a kind, sometimes hilarious man that is truly on top of his mentalism game, hire Ralph. Like others have mentioned he has an amazing personality and made sure everybody felt welcome and comfortable. We will definitely hiring Ralph's Mentalism for future events."

"Rumbamania played two sets at my wedding, our guests thoroughly enjoyed both - as did we! The song choices were perfect for the setting and vibe, and the band are so talented at what they do. Carlos was great with communication in the lead up towards the event, so we felt confident about it all. "

"Hi Dan, I just wanted to say a huge thanks for last night. I've been absolutely bombarded by people complimenting you (as well as your DJing skills..) and I think we can all agree that it was a night we'll all remember for years to come. You managed to capture the mood so perfectly, as well as the essence of our year in general, so thank you for making the night so special and helping us say goodbye to each other in such a wonderful way. I hope you had as much fun as we did. On a personal note, I've never planned an event before, and whilst the whole experience was rather terrifying at times, I never for a second doubted that you would let us down, so thank you for making the whole process so seamless and easy. If I ever find myself in need of a DJ again, I promise you'll be the first person I call! All the best, Ammaarah"

"Chris Harper performed at our Christmas party in December 2021, which was an event with 120 attendees. His communication beforehand was excellent and we were able to agree on the set he would be playing on the day. He arrived promptly to set up and was friendly towards members of staff at the venue. His performance was superb and enjoyed by all. He played a mix of his own music and covers of popular songs, even taking requests. We had an overall great experience and have invited him along again this year."

"We hired the violinist and pianist for our wedding in the Veneto region, and they were absolutely fantastic. From the planning phase to the final performance, everything was handled with great care and professionalism. They offered us a wide repertoire and helped us select the perfect pieces for each moment of the day. Their suggestions were always tasteful and aligned with our vision. During the ceremony, the music was simply breathtaking. The combination of violin and piano created a romantic and elegant atmosphere that made the moment even more emotional. At the reception, they provided a beautiful musical background that enhanced the ambiance without ever being intrusive. Their performance added a touch of class that made the event truly special. All our guests were impressed, and many complimented us on the choice of musicians. It was clear that they brought not only skill but also passion to their performance. We are incredibly happy with our choice and highly recommend them to anyone looking for high-quality live music for weddings or events."

"We were fortunate to book, 'Dinner Jazz Duo' for our recent wedding. They played a wonderful programme of music rich in the nostalgia of the American Songbook, which is what we requested. Wow. Their performance was greatly enjoyed by all, impeccably played, sublime. They are consummate professionals, they arrived as they said and set up in good time and as previous reviews confirm, they are exceptionally talented musicians. We would not hesitate to rebook Dinner Jazz Duo for another joyful celebration. 'Thank you for the Music'. Julie & Tim"

"Brandon is an absolute must in any kind of event. We had him for a teen birthday party and he had the group entertained even after the show was over. His appearance is great and appealing for young crowds. Hoping to rebook for a future event."
