Bluba Lu (Dimitar Paskalev and Konstantin Katsarski) has been one of the most innovative and prolific BG music formations of the new millennium. Pioneers in the BG ‘underground movement’ and “guilty” of feeding life to contemporary Bulgarian music, they have released four albums since 2001: “Bluba Lu in Wonderland” 2001, “MOOGaMOOD” 2002, “Re:Verb” 2004, and the latest – “World Melancholy” 2007.
Bluba Lu has also collaborated with LTJ Bukem and produced a couple of singles for “Earth” (Vol. 7), a compilation CD released by Good Looking Records.
Cautious of solidifying a style, Bluba Lu successfully interweaves trip hop, nu jazz, rock & blues, chill out or ambient motives. Exploring the various wild or trotted trails of creativity, they find themselves on a similar path with bands such as: “WARP,” “4AD,” “Ninja Tune,” and “Sonar Kollektiv.” With each unique project, the band has found a large, devoted audience that finds each concert as cathartically and unforgettably ravishing.
The last album, World Melancholy: featuring guest singer Androniia Popova (Roni) has been a true challenge for the band and a very special treat for the fans. Composed for a forty-member symphonic orchestra, a band, plus a vocalist, it became the major music event of the year. And sales prove it: sold out of tickets days before any concert – a fact only but a few young Bulgarian musicians can boast about.
