Disko Partizani (2007)

Stefan Hantel's landmark release introduced Balkan brass to international dancefloors, but the album's lasting strength lies in its respect for original acoustic ensemble textures. Collaborating with musicians from Romania, Serbia, and Greece, Shantel pairs authentic brass lines with buoyant Mediterranean rhythms. Tracks like the title cut and Šusulepe keep the raw acoustic bite of trumpets and clarinets front and centre, celebrating Balkan polyphony while bridging disparate regional styles.
