there was a thread on Rebetika
http://ihatemusic.noquam.com/viewtopic. ... t=rebetiko

but maybe you aim at something completely different with this thread.......

anyway, ever since I started that thread, I've started to write songs in that "style" but with words in a dialect that I grew up with (Drents/nederSaksian/netherDiets and I'm sure there are more names....) and which is slowly dying out.
So, there's a road among many, of course

(I absolutely can't bring myself to singing, but if I do, it just HAS to be the tongue I grew up with....)
