Poor Relatives have been gigging and organizing exclusive parties in Bucharest under the name Khidja for almost a decade. They play deep disco and house, mostly 80’s – 90’s stuff, Detroit techno and even towards new wave, progressive rock and Latin or Arabian rhythms early in the morning.

Their sound is all about the groove – warm and sleazy, made for sweaty bodies dancing together at a rooftop party high above the city’s grey streets. It’s down right obvious why they spun together with the likes of Moodymann, Idjut Boys, Tim Sweeney, In Flagranti and DJ Spun – they play music that people can relate to. Social music, nothing absurdly complex, they manage to place the funk and groove in the spotlight.

Their ascendant pathway to glory in Bucharest’s hectic nightlife led them to perform at Rokolectiv Festival in 2010 and to explore the possibilities of sweaty and deep club music even further. Word of advice, wear something sleazy.
