Projekt Beschreibung

ALPKAN describes its musical style as "music from somewhere between the Alps and the Balkans". Since the Balkans are known to begin in Vienna, Viennese slang and the Viennese song play a not insignificant role in ALPKAN. It's not uncommon for them to get into a rant when they're caught "fare dodging". But jazzy elements and alpine folk music are not neglected either. The latter mostly off the beaten track. After all, who says that a yodelling song can't sound like electronic music? Or that flamenco and polka don't go together? In short: ALPKAN is a fusion of brass, jazz, Balkan and Viennese song. Thematically, the songs mainly deal with the areas of cuisine, botany and sociology. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
