Product Description
The Shukar Collective was born in Romania from the meeting of new generation musicians with the gypsy traditions of Shukar founders Napoleon, Tamango and Clasic. Shukar play ursari music (ursar means 'bear tamer' or 'bear handler') using spoons, wooden barrels or darabuka to create a powerful and urgent sound that is at the same time emotional and soulful. Urban Gypsy combines Shukar's original ursari music with the new technology of the collective, resulting in their distinctive sound.

5 out of 5 stars Masterpiece.......2006-02-18

I don't know what cd the previous reviewer was listening to but this is another masterpiece for Marc Antoine. I don't want to name all the songs but did they hear The title track "Urban Gypsy"? How about Forget-me-not, Brazil'96 and Paris jam. This is good stuff. The guitar play is outstanding. There is a perfect mix of whatever tempo you like. Something for the romancers and dancers. If you just want to listen that's there too. This is really a great cd and if you have a lot of knowledge of Marc or just some, I believe you will really enjoy this cd. Check it out!!!

2 out of 5 stars Only One Good Song.......2003-02-26

This disappointing CD has one good song, "Latin Quarter", which still receives lots of airplay. None of this CD's other songs have the infectious, up-tempo beat of "Latin Quarter" and some are very slow. The final track, "Storytime" is okay however it is puzzling why most of this CD is overly mellow.

5 out of 5 stars Steady Marc Antoine.......2001-06-27

If you like any of Marc's stuff, you'll like this as well. He seems to be a steady talent who produces good music. He'll be around for a while.

5 out of 5 stars Swept away by the Latin Jazz experience........2001-03-23

If you want to feel as if you have been taken away and engolfed in the sites and sound of Spain, then buy this cd. I have all of his cd's and love them all. He has a sound that just captivates you and takes to a that special place.

His music has that soft, jazzy, latin sound. It's romantic, even passionate.

If you like Latin style jazz, then by this cd...buy them all!

5 out of 5 stars Into light jazz or Flamenco guitar? You MUST give this a lis.......2000-03-29

Marc Antoine is my favorite light/Latin jazz artist out there; I own all 4 US-release albums, having bought his newest one sight unseen. (Sound unheard??) If you're into light jazz at all, you'll probably recognize at least one of the songs here. It's ALL good; Ottmar Liebert and Flamenco-guitar fans will feel right at home.

    4 out of 5 stars Electronica & Spoons.......2006-06-27

    The guitarist, Ottmar Liebert once referred to his band Luna Negra as Old World instruments meets New World instruments.

    This CD is exactly that. The folk songs and instruments of the Romanian coupled with electronica breakbeat. Great music for those that can enjoy music with lyrics that are in foreign languages. A very enjoyable album and necessary for those that enjoy world music, electronica and something entirely different.

    For atmospheric music, this is an incredible addition to a collection.

    4 out of 5 stars Interesting.......2005-07-15

    I confess that I am writing this review having only seen the video of "Malademna," not having heard the whole album, but since Amazon at this point has not provided any information about the CD, I thought I'd do that.

    This group was born in Romania and incorporates gypsy elements into their songs. According to the blurb on the CD cover, they play usari music, using spoons and wooden barrels in making their music.

    I really like the music and visuals on the "Maldemna" music video. It's lively music with an intensity to it, and an interesting video concept. Fans of Serart should love this. (For now, check out reviews and samples of Serart's album to get a general idea of this one.)

    If I get to hear more of this later, I will add more to this review, but I hope this much is helpful.

    5 out of 5 stars Like nothing you have ever heard. .......2005-06-21

    I originally heard a track or two on PRI and liked it. Since then I have purchased the CD, just released in the USA May 24th and am looking for anything I can find by them. This music is not for the timid. If you are locked in to traditional everyday music this is not for you but if you are willing to expand your musical horizions, this CD is for you. It's RAP with a driving rythum that capitavates, try it you may like it.
