Balkan Beat Box (BBB) is an Israeli musical group founded by ex-Gogol Bordello member Tamir Muskat, Ori Kaplan of Firewater and Big Lazy, and Tomer Yosef (MC, vocals, perc, sampler unit). As a musical project they often cooperate with a host of other musicians both in the studio as well as live. Balkan Beat Box's first album (released in 2005) and their 2007 follow-up, entitled Nu Med, both received global acclaim.
While their first, self-titled album focused more on Mediterranean sounds, their new album included Arabic and Spanish influences. The song Bulgarian Chicks off their first album has already become popular in clubs and dancehalls, proving that the music scene is ready to embrace diverse and hybrid musical forms.
