Music: Kalyi Jag (Black Fire Group)
This dance is identical to the Turkish dance Yeni Yol. When performed to the Rumelaj music however, it becomes this popular gypsy dance. The words are rumoured to be obscene, but are generally viewed to concern the seduction of a girl called Rumelia. The dance was put to this music by Steve Kotansky.
