DelaDap (also known as !DelaDap and !deladap; stylized as DELADAP) is an Austrian electro swing, [7] pop, [8] and EDM [9] band belonging to Stani Vana. Initially, Vana worked with international musicians from the Czech Republic, Serbia, Bosnia, Herzegovina, and Russia; the idea was to combine Roma music with jazz, electronic music, and pop music. [10] [11]

History

The band was founded in 2004 [12] by Stani Vana, in Vienna. [7] The name "DelaDap" comes from Romani, and translates to "give me the beat" or "give me the rhythm". [10] [13] Their music is influenced by the Balkans. [4] [5] Their second album, Dela Paji, was released in 2006, [14] with various guest musicians from Central and Eastern Europe contributing their individual styles. [15] Czech-born saxophonist and producer Philip Noha from Cologne edited the Slavic traditional "Goldregen" together with Stani Vana. [16]

In 2012, DelaDap, now with singer Melinda Stoika, was accepted into the Austrian national preliminary rounds for the Eurovision Song Contest in Baku, with the song Crazy Swing. When a cell phone video of a DJ set showed the song played before the claimed earliest release date of 2011, [17] the track was disqualified. [18] [10] They re-entered the competition with the song Don't Turn Around. [19] [20] DelaDap also applied to represent Austria in 2022. [21]

In the same year, the single Don't Turn Around was number 67 in the Austrian charts. [22] The album I Know What You Want peaked at 42, [23] and in 2014, the album This is Deladap was ranked 41. [24]

DelaDap's fourth album I Know What You Want was nominated for the Austrian Amadeus Awards in 2012 and 2013. [8] [25]

In 2014, for the song Listen Up, musicians from the Austrian music club Erla collaborated with DelaDap. [26] Melinda Stoika was the singer for the band [4] until 2013, when the Viennese singer Tania Saedi became the successor to Stoika until 2014. [5] [6] Yola B was henceforth the singer. [27]

In 2022, the album Play was released in Japan, with new versions of the songs in Japanese. [28] [29]

Genre

The band started off being inspired by Balkan music, and the music has been described as "gypsy" in style. [30] [31] DelaDap gradually moved away from the Balkan genre, [13] [32] and by 2016 had left it. [30] They now play in the swing and EDM genres. [33] Stani Vana explained the shift as the Balkan genre being too taxing on the band. [30]
