Foy

EM85 / 2010

The most fun about making music is to be able to compose one’s own material and play around with the material of others.

Ever since Bengalo started (in 2000), the group has sought to evolve its own kind of expression, or “sound”. Working with musicians from various countries and different backgrounds has helped us along the way.

This album is a product of a continuing process…

P.S. Foy is Serbian meaning something like ick, ugh or yuk…
