Hailing from Israel, New York, and all points of the rhythmic compass, Balkan Beat Box’s Tamir Muskat (Firewater), Ori Kaplan (Gogol Bordello), and Tomer Yosef have been hailed as the Godfathers of Global Bass, showcasing the modern underground creative melting pot that is Brooklyn.

Drawing upon their wide-ranging backgrounds in global musical culture, their sound is a high-energy fusion of ancient traditions, modern hip-hop, dancehall, and electronic sampling, and the band have garnered consistent acclaim for their explosive live performances.
