this band is based in Russia so mostly it's Russian influenced, as they describe and is sometimes evident in the videos, photos and historic paintings, Roma culture, dress and dance styles etc all carry traces of different countries. They point out that in Russia, spain, bulgaria, hungary and many other countries there will be, for example, songs that to an average british person like myself, will sound like the traditional music of that country. In Spain, flamenco for example, within flamenco there will be some gypsy songs and some spanish songs. Much like, perhaps, most people wouldn't recognise the difference between an irish folk tune and a scottish one although to me they sound different.
