The entrance fee is average, the p<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>rice of beer<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> acceptable, yet it looks like an exclusive upper-class club. Noble interior in dark and gold colours, fancy shirts, sleek hair-do, glamorous yet revealing dresses, high-heels, jewellery. In Club Biad they play Chalga, a controversial Bulgarian variant of pop-folk upon which the population is divided. Is it <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>a<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> bane of Bulgarian culture, promoting loose morals, irresponsible promiscuity and materialism? Or an expression of deep human desires and heartaches, a sound to finally let go to? I\u2019m here to i<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>nvestigate<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>. And all around everyone\u2019s dancing or clapping their hands to the beat of a love song I do not understand.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

C<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>halga came up in around \u201889 and was forbidden under the socialist regime. The incorporation of other Balkan countries\u2019, Arabic, Turkish, and Gypsy musical traditions didn\u2019t go well with the ruling party\u2019s vision of a mono-ethnic state. Not to speak of the lyrics dealing with sex, drugs and corruption. All against socialist morals. So in the early years those things that may seem superficial or hedonistic about Chalga now symbolized a newly found freedom. For example having your own business and making lots of money or wearing scarce clothes without being chased by the police simply weren\u2019t possible before. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>This explains the Chalga tradition of showering the dance floor with napkins, throwing them in the air like you\u2019d imagine a crazy millionaire doing it with money. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Throughout the 90s and early 2000s Chalga remained a genre in which boundaries are overstepped. In 1999 Azis, probably the most famous Chalga singer, dropped his first album. He is openly homosexual and for a long time displayed a lasciviously flamboyant, cross-dresseresque image to the public. Keep in mind that this happened in a to this day very conservative eastern European society. Check out one of his music videos<\/a> to get an idea of his art.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n[aesop_image img=”https:\/\/svjmedia.nl\/internationaljournalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/378\/2022\/06\/places27050aa766b5cccc8d5af8e3f26c5c75.png” panorama=”off” align=”center” lightbox=”on” captionsrc=”custom” caption=”Saturday night in a Chalga club” captionposition=”left” revealfx=”off” overlay_revealfx=”off”]\n

From what I\u2019ve been told modern Chalga is more provocative then ever. Though not in a political or socially conscious way any more. What provokes the old and the conservative, the squares nowadays is the more and more rampant and explicit display of the sex, drugs, partying lifestyle. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>That this goes against traditional family values is obvious. And it\u2019s not exactly the feminist type of liberated sexuality either. More the \u201cI\u2019m gonna steal your boyfriend\/girlfriend\u201d and \u201cI\u2019m making lots of money and fucking lots of [insert derogatory for women]\u201d type. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Most foreigners won’t have a clue how huge Chalga is in Bulgaria. There are multible big clubs dedicated to it in the capital. In parks near those venues you’ll see big groups gathering by around eight or nine pm, having pre-drinks. All of them are fans. According to a poll by nonivite.com<\/a> 48% of Bulgarians like Chalga and 41% disklike it.\u00a0 One thing I’ve been repeatedly told is that way more people listen to Chalga than you’d assume. It’s just that a lot of people do it in secret because of it’s reputation as a low form of art. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The first thing I noticed while talking to the locals is that they are quite opinionated on this subject, though not necessarily free of ambiguity. \u201cThe people who life this lifestyle have nothing else in their lives. They work their nine to five jobs, not making a lot of money, then <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>for the Chalga parties they dress up like they\u2019re rich and only care about partying. They are empty people who only want pleasure in the moment\u201d, says the guy selling me fast-food. He proceeds: \u201cI really enjoy it myself when I\u2019m buzzed on a few drinks.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Anyway, to find a proper source I went to Club Biad, which I\u2019d been told is popular hangout place for Chalga musicians. Asking around I actually manage to locate one. An average looking guy, mid to late thirties, smoking hookah in the niche between the bar and the small platform on which the hired dancer is shaking it in thong and bra. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>At first his bodyguard, maybe taking me for an overly eager fan, doesn\u2019t let me into the niche. Typing what I want to say into my phone\u2019s notepad and having the sympathetically amused waitress translating I finally get to talk to the agent and we schedule an interview. Just in time for me to witness my first napkin shower.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n[aesop_image img=”https:\/\/svjmedia.nl\/internationaljournalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/378\/2022\/06\/picforarticle2-1.jpg” panorama=”off” align=”center” lightbox=”on” captionsrc=”custom” caption=”Some Chalga venues also host live acts” captionposition=”left” revealfx=”off” overlay_revealfx=”off”]\n

Ceco was a rapper for six or seven years before he became a Chalga singer. He says there is more freedom of expression in Chalga. The accusations of the genre promoting loose morals are simply wrong to him. \u201cWe live in the 21<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>st<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/sup><\/span> century. Everybody is more open to sexuality. It\u2019s normal in our time.\u201d Generally most of the things he has to say seem to revolve around the freedom part. When asked about changes in the topics Chalga is dealing with: \u201c<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>There is freedom in Chalga. You can criticise, say whatever you want to say, no one\u2019s gonna be offended because it\u2019s Chalga. Nowadays people don\u2019t think it\u2019s important to criticise the system in music.\u201d <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Or about the attitude towards women it promotes: \u201c<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>There\u2019s freedom, everyone understands life in different ways. True, in Chalga they sing more for love, more for men with money. Everyone understands different men treat women differently. Especially I <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>treat<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> women with flowers and with love. There\u2019s other kinds of men who treat women badly. Again it\u2019s freedom everyone can say what they want to say. It\u2019s not specified in Chalga how a man will treat a woman. Everyone\u2019s free, whatever they want to say.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n[aesop_image img=”https:\/\/svjmedia.nl\/internationaljournalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/378\/2022\/06\/picforarticle.png” panorama=”off” align=”center” lightbox=”on” captionsrc=”custom” caption=”Professional dancers at Club33. Is it right to appeal to the male gaze for the purpose of journalistic immersion?” captionposition=”left” revealfx=”off” overlay_revealfx=”off”]\n

The Bulgarian ethnomusicologist Prof. DSc Ventislav takes a more critical stance. He says the culture surrounding Chalga glorifies what he calls the \u201cnewly-found heroes of our time\u201d. Heroes within a \u201cconfused system of values\u201d, he emphasizes, their heroicness being the display of \u201cmaterialist signs of capitalist prosperity\u201d. He is deeply worried about the meaning of such role-models. \u201cIf you\u2019re born after 1990 and from a young age listened to Chalga\u2019s dirty fairy-tales, you may mistake them with reality.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I do not have the best feeling about ending the article on such a negative note. After all I\u2019m just some Westerner doing research on a foreign culture. And I had fun visiting Chalga venues, found the people very easygoing to talk to. Maybe before coming to any sort of judgement one should consider what Ceco told me at the end of our interview (that had been entirely translated by his agent by the way): \u201cThe audience of Chalga is more a Balkan audience. They\u2019re more open at parties and know how to have fun.\u201d Who knows?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
