“Traditional Polish songs, with their cutting vocals and meshed fiddles are  the foundation of Warsaw Village Band’s repertory. But while their lineup is primarily acoustic – hand drums, hammered dilcimer, violins, cello – their sensibilities are modern. They hear dance -club drive and trancey echoes in the songs and they use recording studio techniques to heighten the central drones and eerie percussive sounds in their songs. Hints of reggae and guests like a scratching disc jockey should further infuriate purists”

…Conceptually, in some ways, a descendant of Trebunie-Tutki and the Twinkle Brothers’ 1992 Higher Heights - Twinkle Inna Polish Stylee album, though dubbier and modernised, Sploty is one of the WVB’s most appealing projects, and as I write this it’s number one in World Music Charts Europe.

With the women upfront and the guys in back, the group featured songs from their two recent albums, “People’s Spring” and “Uprooting.” Although the one-hour set was often dominated by noisy waves of rhythmic bowing from the two violin players, their string work frequently lacked melodic variety. But the other instruments, and especially the haunting female vocals, took up the slack.”
