For the first Time ever Club Balkan Fever & Mbar are producing a Festival for 3 Days full of Music,Fun, Craziness , Madness& Barbeque
Balkan Fever offers the best Balkan-influenced tunes and grooves from all over the world.
Have you heard of the Dancing Plague of 1518? It was a dancing mania that took place in Strasbourg in 1518. People just couldn't stop dancing, and without rest or sustenance, some fatalities occurred. The Balkan Fever Festival of 2012 will induce dancing mania, too; but where the Alsatians danced for a month, the people of Helsinki will dance for three nights, with plenty of refreshments and other sustenance on hand. This is the sort of choreomania that sets you free instead of enslaving you.
Balkan Fever clubs have been setting Helsinki dance floors on fire for a half a dozen years now. The bands and DJs have come from all over Europe and the club's residents Borzin and Levy have travelled all over the continent, too, all in the name of freeing people's asses so that their minds may follow.

Balkan Fever Festival: New Party Traditions

VJ Pjotr
Balkan Fever Festival night of mayhem, number two, featuring Orkestar Bordurka from Borduria and hosted by DJs Borzin and Levy, featuring visuals by VJ Pjotr.
Orkestar Bordurka hails from Borduria, a country with a dark history of meddling with the internal affairs of its neighbor Syldavia. This history in no way detracts from the effervescent beauty of Borduria's music and folklore. How lucky it is, then, that thanks to the good graces and support of the Bordurian Ministry of Culture and Implements we have the chance to witness Orjestar Bordurka in action.
Balkan Fever After Party 01-04 Inside of Mbar
DJ Prinsen Paulista (Balkan Beats Party Oslo, NO)
VJ Pjtor ( Balkan Fever )
For the Saturday after party, DJ Prinsen Paulista from Oslo will drop an 8 megaton nuclear blast of tuba upon the collective asses of Helsinki, resulting in tectonic jiggling of copious amounts of booty fat and tsunamis sweat raining down on the assembled multitudes of mbar.

Serefe Soundsystem Performing time 20.30
DJ Soma
Hosted by Djs Borzin &Levy
VJ Pjtor
If Balkan Fever Festival nights of Friday and Saturday have not been wild enough for you, don't miss Sunday's Balkan Jam Session with Serefe Sound System. With Vladimir Kekez on percussion, djs Soma, Borzin & Levy in the decks, and of course, some paprika and other goodies cooking in a barbecue, it's a grand finish for the Balkan Fever Festival at mbar terrace.
Serefe Sound System: for one of them it started in a dodgy club in Berlin. For another in a flee-market in Rovaniemi. And the third came from the parking lot after party of a Scandinavian music festival. However, it was a long time until anything actually became of this trio.The first to spark was Jaakko Laitinen with the short lived Orkestar Business Class, and then later the more famous Jaakko Laitinen & Väärä Raha. The other two members took slightly longer to join the international music scene, until Jaakko Laitinen interviewed Arttu Tolonen for a magazine. From there on Serefe Sound System was formed with Teemu and Arttu behind the decks, and Jaakko singing.
