Beirut - Gulag Orchestra
description details2019 release. Beirut - melting pot between Orient and Occident, or "the Paris of the East", a center of free spirits and artists. A crazy band name for the project of a 20-year-old American and yet quite consistent, since he uses the most diverse influences in his sound. As a young boy, Zach Condon was impressed by the Russian polka records of his grandfather, who immigrated to the United States. As a youngster, he produced electronica and doo-wop music. At 17, he dropped out of school and decided to learn from life. Traveling is educating, so he also visited Germany and the former Eastern Bloc countries and spent a lot of time with musicians. During a wild night of partying in Serbia, his new friends initiated him into the secrets of gypsy music and explained the recordings of the Boban Markovic Orchestra to him note by note. "Gulag Orkestar" is the direct result of this and other nights, and now you can see why the songs have titles like "Prenzlauer Berg". Originally largely a solo work, Jeremy Barnes and Heather Trost (A Hawk and A Hacksaw) only supported it with additional percussion and violin recordings. The debut album is a great mix of emotional, traditional but also surprisingly fresh and contemporary music. "Gulag Orkestar" is a unique record that not only delights the critics. Finally something really new for your ears: Calexico meets Gogol Bordello? Arcade fire on slivovitz? Conor Oberst on vodka? The craziest album of 2006 and already a highlight for 2007.

about us
Our founding year of 1998 - long after vinyl was declared dead and long before vinyl was hailed as cool again - proves that we are real vinyl nerds. We only started out as a small record dealer from home. Later we opened our first real record shop and then of course our own online shop. Everything with passion and always with the motto: SAVE THE VINYL. What is not available online is available in our Übersee store, Frühlingsweg 22. Overseas? Yes. Übersee Am Chiemsee. Right on the A8 autobahn, between Munich and Salzburg. Here you will also find a fine range of second-hand vinyl.We also have a large selection of equipment from many manufacturers. Simply everything you need for everything to do with vinyl...
