As for "Disko Partizani" - I first heard it late at night in Los Angeles, on a 1-watt college radio station's "World Music" program.

Like yourself, my first reaction was: "WTF was THAT?"

Looked it up and tried to get the lyrics after the first English verse. That became really interesting.

Some actual Romanian people on the internet said part of the lyrics were definitely Romanian and they understood them. But some of the singing, they guessed, was in a local Romany/Gypsy dialect and they couldn't figure it out either.
