Greek Rebetika is terrific stuff: it sounds recognizably Balkan (Greece sits at the base of the Balkan Peninsula duh), but is more redolent of smoky nighttime taverns than of joyous weddings. Grigoris Maninakis is a master.
MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: A much cheerier late-night tavern than Rebetika evokes, Grand Army Bar.
