PSEUDO – EMIGRANT CABARET
Foltin in short, is an unusual cast, whose music is hard to define, and every attempt to insert it into a musical genre would not be very successful. Foltin’s music is surreal, passionate and witty, characterized with a frantic dance atmosphere, which is achieved with the fast Macedonian rhythm. Even though they use standard musical elements, their approach in creating the atmosphere is unpredictable and above all, original. In their musical identity the Anglo - Macedonian hybrid, is a collision between the East and West. Their language is an imaginary mixture or phonetic imitation of the world languages like: Spanish, French, Romanian, Portuguese… Their “spontaneous Esperanto”.
Foltin describe themselves as pseudo - emigrant cabaret, and often their concerts are turning into real performances. It is not a strange thing to imagine all that when you consider the fact that they have worked on a music for THEATRE PERFORMANCES, in which they are famous for using the ready-made “instruments” or creating ambient sound with objects from unmusical primer function, construction of some kind sculptures and installations.
They took part in many musical and theatre FESTIVALS in Macedonia, Croatia, Italy, Austria, Slovenia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Albania, Bulgaria, Hungary, France and they have been awarded for their work many times.
The group exists since 1995 and so far they have published five albums:
* Outre-Mer(1997) *
* Archimed (2000) *
* Donkey Hot (2003) *
* Lo-Lee-Ta-Too(2005) *
* Ova transplantirana masina za cukanje dosega ne tipkala ljubovno pismo(2008) *

Многу продуховен пристап кон музицирањето. Ослободен од бариерите на конвенционалното творење, полн со емоции, а сепак стабилен и се подобар. Со други зборови Фолтин се ЗАКОН ! ! ! ! ! !
