G.Rag y los Hermanos Patchekos - Mediterranean Space Arkestra
The group was founded at the end of 1999, artistically stubborn, influenced by the DIY of the punk bands or the 90s hardcore bands. At some point they got fed up with this or not and wanted to start something quieter but still cool. This led to the development of their very own sound. For years now, the Hermanos Patchekos have been moving back and forth between swing, cumbia, folk, Latin, their punk influences and lo-fi orchestras.
The actual machine of the Hermanos Patchekos consists of two percussionists who don't really play their drums in the conventional sense: A conga player and a drum kit assembled from plastic boxes and sheet metal. the whole thing rattles very south. Then there's the Patcheko brass section (3 trumpets, clarinet + baritone saxophone), 3 guitars, 1 crooner, double bass, accordion, kalimba, percussion ... Depending on your mood, it's kind of like a Mediterranean Arkestra. And absolutely hypnotic.
