nilhil_glory Posted March 14, 2008 Posted March 14, 2008 I wanna know what the hell 'serbian turbo folk' is. heheheheheheh The term Turbo-Folk was invented in the late 1980s by the Serbian rock & roll pop-star Rambo Amadeus, in order to designate a curious musical mixture of styles, combining disco, dance and techno rhythms, melismatic singing and various oriental and traditional Balkan music elements, usually performed by blond female singers with long-legs, short-skirts and big-breasts. Whilst the term Turbo-Folk openly bears its pejorative connotation, it gained popularity not just among the critics and opponents of this type of music, but as well among the fans and even Turbo-Folk performers themselves. However, far from being just a label of a particular musical genre, this term has immediately started to operate as a denominator of the specific political and cultural situation in Serbia in the 1990s, as well as to be an object of ideological struggle over the meaning of the nature and causes of this situation. In that vain, Turbo-Folk as a term appeared to be an empty signifier, an open container, within which various meanings, positions and oppositions circulated and mingled.
