Out of a simple pulse and simple folk-like tunes evolve a complex web of harmonies and rhythmic interactions that often times dissolve into a fast vortex of sound to resume again to the initial playful mood. The harmonies too follow a similar path of evolution: from simple consonances to colorful dissonances.
