Subcarpați


Subcarpați is a Romanian hip-hop band from Bucharest. Formed in 2010 by MC Bean, the band blends hip-hop with elements from Romanian folk music. The genre seeks to reinterpret popular motifs specific to Romanian's folk music, and is often referred to as "underground folklore".
The project had brought together various artists: Omu' Gnom, DJ Limun from Timișoara, Mara, Dragonu' from Specii, VJ Andri, DJ Power Pe Vinil, Esqu, Argatu', and other collaborators.
The British newspaper The Guardian described Subcarpați as being "an explosive mixture of old and new. It's an eclectic combination that brings together melancholy Romanian folk songs, Romanian unity songs, traditional instruments and the rhythms of trip-hop, dubstep, hip-hop and dancehall."
