[BURDEL DALI PRESENTS] PROMO 2010
Song: Zdob Si Zdub – Videli Noci
[BURDEL DALI PRESENTS] is a crazed celebration of world music, cross-cultural dance floor throw-downs, international dress codes, and trans-global festivity.
Spawned from the minds of gypsy-sympathizing, globe-trotting artists and music-lovers DJ Mishto (Bucharest, Romania) & Raphlex (Arequipa, Peru), the party began as a Thursday night free-for-all at Mehanata Bulgarian Bar in downtown NYC.
They became maestros of Balkan anthems, gypsy lamentations, and a formidable plethora of festive soundtracks from across the universe. Michelle Christina (Mishka) of TchaikovskyDarling.com became the party’s host in Summer 2009 and the three have taken their circus from the wooden walls of the Bulgarian bar to the basements of Bushwick, abandoned airport fields, and everywhere in between.
They represent the first sparkling, melodic hints of what is becoming the most exciting scene to hit New York/Global nightlife in years.
Bands Featured at [Burdel Dali Presents] have included the infamous Mames Babegenush (Denmark), the illustrious Kreptatka Bar Band (NJ, USA), and downtown NYC gypsy music staples like Outernational, BAD BUKA, and Avram Pengas.
The after party routinely features epic world-wide soundtracks that mix the anthems of fallen nations with modern day pop and jacked up dance, all adequately saturated with regional audacity and vibrations of artistic, musical, and emotional revolution.
Patrons of the Burdel dance to Bulgarian chalga, Russian gypsy folk songs, klezmer wedding marches, Hungarian lullabies, and Punjabi bhangra beats in the span of a few hours. This caravan of culture and festivity is branching out in Summer 2010 to bring a bit of gypsy flavor to whoever is willing to listen. For now you can find them every Thursday night at Mehanata Bulgarian Bar. 113 Ludlow in the LES.

Who needs Kinkos? All we need is a black & white printer, some fancy neon paper, and an antique paper cutter to spread the word of our equally thrifty movement. Paper Parteeee!
And this week’s party…
[Burdel Dali Presents] The “Start Wearing Purple” Party!
We cordially invite all gypsy punks, Balkan superstars, and purple little ladies to our Thursday night affair that will begin on the main level and move to the lower level abruptly if we jump hard enough to break through the floor.
This entire invite could be a relentless pun re: Gogol Bordello lyrics but we’ll leave it at this: come over, wear purple, and let our resident DJs Raphlex & Mishto feed your rampant audio addiction.
Live performance by Avram Pengas 9:30 – 11:30PM.
FREE ADMISSION on our list all night – $10 before 11:30 otherwise.

HAPPY NEW YEAR! ★ 2010 has officially occurred, and Burdel Dali Presents is prepared to get it like a sparkling circus of festive debauchery.
We may not have realized it was 12:00AM on January 1st 2010, but that doesn’t mean a new era of the Burdel’s IMPERIAL REIGN didn’t dawn on us at some point before sunrise (see sparkly photos for visual reference).
Come celebrate the first installment of our 2010 party series this Thursday, December 7th, with Raphlex and DJ Mishto, the highly decorated maestros of our cause, who always come armed with gypsy punk, chalga, bhangra, Russian dance, flamenco, and a few scattered surprises.
