NEGURA BUNGET Drummer's DIN BRAD To Release 'Dor' Album

June 26, 2009

NEGURA BUNGET drummer Negru has set "Dor" as the title of the debut album from his folk project DIN BRAD. A late 2009 release via Auerbach Tonträger is expected.

According to a press release, "'Dor' is a unique Romanian word/concept describing a fundamental characteristic of the local spirit. 'Dor' is your heart longing for something you had and then lost, longing for something you wished for yet never had, longing for a person, a place, a time... 'Dor' reflects a Romanian mythical time, in the same way as 'Plai' reflects a Romanian mythical space.

"As a first step in the exploration of local traditional soundscapes, the album 'Dor' is composed out of two distinct elements. On one side there are authentic Romanian traditional songs, sung by local performers and recorded in their original environment. On the other side, there are some personal visions and reinterpretations of Romanian traditional music, performed and recorded in the studio, some featuring some prestigious guests. Both are mended by the same feeling powering them — 'dorul.' While the first part is the result of years of investigations into what is still alive today from the Romanian musical and spiritual ancestral traditions, the second part is a personal expression influenced by DIN BRAD's understanding and living of the lands that gave them birth."
