No offense taken, my friend. But you have completely missed the point. These guys play FUNK and JAZZ and add elements from music that is different than the one they grew up with (i.e. Balkan). Meaning they never pretended to be gypsy or play real gypsy music. They are American, New Zealander, Canadian, etc. So, you can go and compare yourself to Ork. Kozari, Ork. Balkan, Ivo, Ork. Karandila, etc. and comment under their videos. I'm sure you sound freakin' awesome...
