Debut record by the young Bulgarian singer of gipsy origin, Sissi Atanassova, is representative of a musical style, the Cialga - which is very popular in the Balkan area, and is also well known to create a lot of hype at ballrooms in all the main cities of that part of Europe. This genre can also be defined with terms like Folkpop or Ethnopop. Popular music from the Balkan area has always been contaminated by Eastern flavours coming from the domination of the Turkish Empire and from gipsy musical expressions.
