The Romanian blouse, also called “ie”, is probably the most emblematic piece of Romanian folklore and artistic expression. It goes far back, all the way to the Antiquity, where some similar designs appear on the figures enacting Trajan’s victory in the Dacian Wars on Trajan’s Column in Rome. Made in linen, cotton or silk, it is embellished with embroideries of geometrical and floral patterns that depend on the region, such as circles and crosses, flowers and butterflies, sometimes even sequins around the neckline, on the front and the sleeves. Each pattern has a meaning; fertility, war, love, fragility, power and faith. For instance, trees stand for wisdom and life while sunflowers represent the sun, a symbol of God and prosperity. And so, when a Romanian woman is embroidering her blouse, she knows exactly what she wants to say, and each blouse tells its own story. In the past, the blouses used to indicate the age, social and marital status; Young and unwedded girls would wear bright colours while married or older women would wear simple patterns and discrete colours. Today still, there are artisans hidden away in small villages, who carry on their ancestral traditions in making these blouses, by hand, and who continue to pass on this unique know-how to their daughters and granddaughters. In France, the Romanian blouse gained a lot of fame thanks to Henri Matisse’s paintings in the 40’s, inspired by Romanian women: Elvira Popescu, Martha Bibesco, Anna des Noailles and Elena Vacarescu. However, as a fashion item, this blouse goes back much further. Originally, the blouse was worn exclusively by peasant women but towards the mid-19th century, it became popular among the upper class as members of the Romanian royal family, Elisabeth of Romania and later Queen Marie and her daughters, adopted the traditional blouses.

Yo! you are right, the first song ''Colind'' ( translates to ''Christmas Carol'' ) is an old traditional song that these sisters reinterpret acapela and Subcarpati mix these kind of folklore with electro/rap music. The ''Subcarpati'' ( translates to ''Sub-carpatian mountain range'' ) is actually a project that was intened to bring back folklore to mainstream media and they called it ''Underground-Folklore''. The discussion here can be extended because after 89', romanians I feel like are in a search for their identity as a nation ( not that it is not there, but it faded in people's minds while under the communism regime ) and this project, Subcarpati, unites romanians in a way no other music band has done before. Really glad you enjoy our music ( surprising as these kind of beats and rythms are traditional and may not appeal to foreign people just as well ).

Te iubesc România mea frumoasă. 🇷🇴❤❤❤

What those women sing is deep Romanian folklore music, is as old as it gets. It represents 100’s if not 1000’s of year of culture, of musical culture. This is what humans use to get high 100’s of years ago, singing this music and dancing and rotating in circles to archive deeper states of consciousness, perhaps not intentionally, more like an innate human need to reach a different state of mind, is sort of the equivalent of tribal music in countries like those in Africa or tribes in the Amazon jungle. I’m proud of my roots and the rich cultural background that we have as nation. Unfortunately, our culture has been hijacked by lots of garbage artists and by media. The positive thing is that we still have artists like these guys, that were able to recognise the value of our musical and cultural history and bring it back to life. It’s also great that people like you are able to recognise and appreciate musical quality and the dope ness of these artists.

Surorile Osoianu, sus Moldova 🇲🇩 🇲🇩🇲🇩❤️

Yes, they are sisters in real life too. Exceptional singers from Moldova. Known way more back in the days, but people forgot them for a period of time. The first featuring with them to appear on a videoclip was with Zdob & Zdub (moldavian folk rock band) some years ago. The traditional shirt is called "ie" (it's read like "ye" from english). What they wear is the traditional clothing from the North-East (thank you @Marinela Lungu) Romania (including our brothers from Moldova). Every part of the country has its unique style of embroidery due to the influence they had across time.

if you feel a lot of emotion, imagine us, romanian people how we fell... i am actually crying... listening to this make me sad and happy in the same time... we have a beautiful country, just the system is broken!!

Exceptional singers from the Republic of Moldova- Osoianu sisters

Avem ce a mai frumoasa tara cu cele mai frumoase obiceiuri❤️ fii binecuvantata Romania🙏🏻

I noticed that you appreciated the cameraman. He may have lost about 2 pounds during filming. He did a great job also 👌

Can someone count how many times this man sat up in expectation/hype & then chilled back enjoying it. A constant change between hype & chill.

The shirt that the siters are wearing is called "ie".

Bro this is hall of fame Romanian song. Legendary. This Band make Us so proud that You cant imagine. Happy to react on this, but The funny fact is that i know that You Will be impresed. When You lisen this live feel Young again. The words are too small to expres this. Music speaks every language and You are The proof.

That's our traditional music way back from the Dacians and so are teh traditional outfits of teh sisters. Yes they are sisters. And the music is a blend of traditional with hip hop music. That particular song deserves more attention. It's a masterpiece!

I’m Romanian and My mom was their student when she was young the sisters were teaching her to sing my mom was in one of those old newspapers.

It feels otherworldly when they sing, angelic and every time I am listening to this song, named " Carols", I feel close to myself and God.

Groove on, keep these boys in the spotlight! Superb faptul ca toti romanii, oriunde in lume, facem tot posibilul sa schimbam imaginea negativa care ne-a fost oferita.

5 dancing in synchron is awesome but 5 singing in synchron is really crazy and I love them! ❤️

All sisters. Heard them live in their childhood backyard in Moldova. Their top wearing is called "ie", those are hand made and could probably date 100-150 years old. The song is usually sang around christmas. "colind" is the term for songs sang in christmas period.

They are from Moldova based on their traditional costume, in Romania each region has different costume, different motives and different colors are used, the shirt is called "ie" the skirts and the stuff over the skirts i believe they have different names, based on the region. I am from the opposite part of Moldova but their signing made me cry, is just beautiful, if you ever have the chance, you should visit Romania, is an amazing country, with amazing people and more amazing culture.

HOLY SHIT DUDE thank you for reacting to this!!

I heard this song months ago, and its magical... It's like a ritualistic song, if you listen in the trip of mushroom,LSD ...you can see lot of things.

This is my country...this song is more than 100 years old. You are beautiful people...your songs will live forever❤

They sing surreal , this is the word you were looking for.

You just saw Romania in 12 minutes. All of it summed in 12 minutes. The women also sang for The Last Of Us Ps5 premiere in Romania

Unbelievebel ! I'm romanian but I'm shocked by this band Subcarpați !!😮😢🎉❤ OMG. They are very good !! Amazing !! 😢😢🎉❤ Cristian

Colind means carol. Romanian kids go to the neighbours the night before Christmas and sing carols and get money 😁 This is an adaptation of some old romanian carols and its so beautifull to listen to it.. We have an amazing culture and we should apreciate more...

It's indeed a mix of traditional music and of course Subcarpați beats. Few romanian bands are actually doing this types of mixes. It's uniqueness gives me chills. Yah, even for us sometimes it's too deep. Everytime I listen I imagine the mountains and the amazing Romania. Our childhood , actually. The fresh air, the smell of grass. Heaven. Here in London quite hard to have some fresh air 😅 The traditional blouse it's called ' Ie" and it's usually handmade. 💙 Thanks for your appreciation. I cannot wait for this pandemic to be over and Subcarpați to come to London. 😍

They are for sure an experience to listen to even for a local that knows them in forever.

This is a mixture, between folcloric romanian music, pop an RAP !! 🎉😢😮😢😮❤❤ It's unbelievebel !! Hai România !🎉❤ Cristian

Absolutely bliss! In regards to your question regarding the traditional Romanian clothing is called "IE". "Cred ca sunt extraterestru" = " I think I am a alien" Sounds are wiked!

The guy with the flute is Calin Han

Yeeeees!!! Been waiting for this reaction!!! 🔥💚💜

The Limba romana beat was made quite a while ago by Argatu. He's actually a doctor, but his love for music make things like this to happen. He's a seen as a beat maker in the industry, so if you want check for Argatu - The King's anthem. Big up!

You should really react to Subcarpați - Da-i Foale Live in studio, it will actually give you gosebumps. Btw they had some concert's in United Kingdom, they usualy did it almost evry year but with this pandemic situation it was canceled. Big Up!

I've been searching for a foreigner's reaction to this song for so long. Amazing video! 💕💕💕💕

Goosebumps 😳 Amazing! ❤

Thank you broo for appreciating this music from Romania, I'm gypsy from Romania 🇷🇴 If you want to listen to this song, the name is (Paula Hriscu - ce folos ) it's amazing so beautiful!

The women ARE in fact sisters. They have been singing folklore aince they were young. They are not only sisters but very close to each other ao the sincronicity is no wonder at all. ❤🎉

I told you about it mate ! I am happy you do the reaction for this ! All the best man ! I follow you always !

I get goosebumps not just from the music itself but also when I see your reaction :) glad that you like it

I love these guys !! The ladies are so awesome. Goosebumps every single time i listen this song. ❤️❤️❤️

Yes man you doin' a great job, best of luck and thumbs up!!

they wearing: 👩-🧢batic 🥼-ie 🩳-fustă 🦶-🧦ogheală-🥿opinci the emojis don't look like the real clothes

I feel emotions ! great video !

Best song i heard in years , and they did this Live and so many people and diff. instruments makes it even more impressive crazy coordonation and pure talent .

Big up bro! As you said you would like to see em live, after all this virus bullshit will end you might get the chance. They had a sick concert in London couple years back, as there's a large community of romanians in uk. Would be sick to see you present at a future concert, btw they are dope in front of a crowd

Your reaction / appreciation is beyond cool 🍺✌️

Man, you are a smart guy if you apreciate this music. It's not an " easy music " !🎉❤ God be with you !🎉 Cristian

if you want that serial feeling times 10... or 100 listen to - Surorile Osoianu - Last of us (game cover song)

The clothing is called “ie” like “ye” but with accent to “y”, “ț” from Subcarpați its like “tz” or “ts” and “ș” from Oșoianu its like “sh”.

I love seeing how much you enjoy listening to this. It is indeed BEAUTIFUL, truly a masterpiece. You should definitely visit Romania and see them in concert. Check out Electric Castle festival this year!!

Don't get me wrong for what i'm about to say. All your reactions are more or less genuine but on this video ,you can see genuine excitement in your eyes and I'm happy for that. You're the only react channel that i subscribed to after this one. Keep it up.

I love when I find people from who know were with such a pleasure for this music. You are an amazing man! 💙💛❤️ I don't think you understend the lyrics but you need to search what it means. The lyrics are just love and reality🖤 Ly :)

Best intro ever, "Te iubesc, frate !" (translation: "I love you, bro!ther")

On the heads they have "batic" which is a square piece of material very coloured and decorated, the shirt is called "iie" highly embroidered by hand, moreover is an underskirt, plain cotton, and an overskirt called "fotă"(the ones they are wearing are moldavian specific, and these overskirts model differs from region to region ) , and i think they wear "opinci" as shoes, which are made by hand from cow skin.Everythink traditional and handmade, eventually passed from generation to generation in family.some pieces can be one or two hundred years old..

I just got back from one of Subcarbati concerts tonight and it was AMAZING. Maybe you get to see them live one day. They put on a hell of a show

Love you man!! And love my country so much !!! I'm in UK now....but man...i miss my country !!! 😔😔🇷🇴🇷🇴👍👍

Bravo bă! I cried!

Tara mea frumoasă și dulce .Love you România

Thank you for promoting our music! Respect! You should see them Live, i prefer them live 1000x than album. They really create the goosebumps.

10:10 guy with the flute is actually a colab , not part of Subcarpati , he is on a project with the guy on traditional drum 14:58 , they are called HANU' . I would love to see you reacting to them. So please react to HANU' - Ziceri Româneşti (Live Session)

If you haven't already, try also Argatu - Urlet la zei ( translates to Howl to the Gods) and Danaga & Osoianu Sisters - Trece-un nouraș pe cer ( A little cloud is passing by)...also, if you look up the lyrics to all of these songs you listen to, you will understand them differently and like them 10 times more

Haha your reactions make me so happy! Watch the live session from Dă-i foale. It is absolutely insane too x

Salut, my Romanian brother(yes, you are one of us now) :P :))

Thank you for your Reaction! Peace! :D

Big respect from 🇷🇴 🇷🇴 România @chemist.

you gotta love this, any way and any how

Cred că sunt un extraterestru =I think that I am an elian 👽 Wish you the best from Romania 💪👏

Thanks 🙏 you promote romanian music (real romanian music)

7:50 "Cred Că Sunt Extraterestru" ("I Think I'm an Alien") is an associated project of Subcarpati started by AFO (the dude at 13:13), check them out.

they've been a few times in camden town.pretty sure they're coming back after this covid slows down

So deep music... BIG FAN SUBCARPATI... 🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴

I’m following you from few months and I like your choices 🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴

Symphonic and deepest and most intensely ALIVE effect.... energizing u to the core

I've been studying youtube for many years and I can say that you're the first one I've given subscribe, I'm not racist or I hate the world, I can say I love it but I only give subscribe to people who deserve it and you're one of those people, chirios mate

Subcarpatzi (Under the Carpathian Mountains) & Surorile (Sisters) Oshoianu - Colind(Christmas Carol)/ Limba Română (Romaniana Language), The blouses are called ''IE'', the headscarves are called ''năframă'', the bag the flute player has is called ''traistă'.

This is the way they used to sing in times of old, this style of singing has been passed down through the centuries from generation to generation and it may even be traced back to the Dacian people and the last part that the sisters sing is them talking to a wolf, the wolf being the guardian animal of the Dacian people, their war banner being a wolf’s head. And I think the word to describe the sisters singing is Mystical as is the Romanian country.

Yes, they are 5 sisters, fery popular folclor singers of moldova and they r wearing ie , that's how u call the traditional Moldovan blouse

you're sick bro. bless!

Thank you for this react

The youtube algorithm randomly recommended this, and I must say that as a Romanian in the UK, it is lovely to see british people interested in eastern folklore. Although Subcarpati is not a folk band, they bring archaic, folk music into the 21st century with their musical arrangement.

Its really a big difference for you and those who are not Romanians to listen to this music. For us, its not only a traditional music but we feel it in out hearts, we feel all our landscapes and village life and family and all the traditions in our country❤ 🇷🇴

Finally full version 😏

Big subscribe for all romanian videos reactions ,, from romanian guy good work

Dunăre, Dunăre also by Subcarpații I am from România and this is a 200yrs old song but is reminded by Subcarpații

you should see them live...they are awesome in concerts

Foarte bine !

You actually can see them live, they are performing in UK too, last year was on 18 apr @London

10:56 The romanian side jumped "Aia e"

Hey 👋🏻 I appreciate you for this video about our culture, Thank you 🙏 and the ladies are from republic of Moldova 🇲🇩 so am I, neighbours with Romania 🇷🇴

You should listen too them in a concert. They bring so many people together. They have the best shows ever. Big-up Subcarpati pe viata. 🇷🇴❤️😀

8:23 the best feeling eveeer 🙏🇷🇴

You can check the Subcarpati Untould festival 2019

This is more as a ritualic song, imagine that you lived approximatively 100 years ago and you are going to fight, to defend your village or country, and women would have sung this to cheer the lads and to express their feelings. How do you you think you'll do, in the fight? This is José Mourinho, on glory days at half time in the locker room, explaining to the team how they will crush their opponent. :)

You now what I mind ,mistic and modern.Brrrr,!!!!!

Bine brooo 👏👏👌
