Synopsis

Product Description
This Hungarian band was formed in 1984, and this is their fifth release. Led by guitarist Csaba Hajnoczy & featuring vocalist/violinist Gabi Kenderesi (both of whom also make up 1/2 of The Danubians), the band also includes soprano sax, bass & drums. ''Singer Gabi has developed her own singing, using unknown languages and innovative vocal pyrotechnics. Meanwhile the guitar, sax, bass & drums thrash out haunting mutated melodies, which also draw on folk idioms & the mix swims with bubbling electronics.

Awesome world-fusion from Hungary
12/14/2001
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Hailing from Hungary, Kampec Dolores plays a style of music that might be best described as world fusion-- there's a lot of folksy stylings from the Balkans and middle east mixed with some seriously rockin' and funky guitar, bass, and drums. Two songs included on _Sitting on the Buffalo_ are traditional (one from Sri Lanka, the other from Turkey_, but the rest are original compositions. Most songs have lyrics in Hungarian delivered by the warbly-voiced female singer (who also plays violin). All in all, a great album with only two sub-par tracks-- one, a pretentious bit of noise that features some really strange vocalizations in a nonsense language and another that, just as pretentiously, consists of several minutes of pure silence. That said, the rest of the CD is awesome and fans of world fusion and crazy funky Balkan rock ought to really, really enjoy this one."
