ABOUT THE RELEASE
Mamud Band are back on the scene with a new sextet and a brand new album, “The Monkey Tapes” out October the 7th on Garrincha GoGo, Garrincha dischi’s sister label devoted to world music and funk and already known for Savana Funk and Fanfara Station.
Mamud Band are an afrofunk ensemble internationally recognized for the intensity of their performance, and their prestigious collaborations with the jazz legend Lester Bowie, Fela Kuti’s drummer Tony Allen, Jessica Lurie and Harouna Dembele just to name a few.
This new chapter expands the afrofunk esthetic with touches of hip-hop and a massive use of keyboards and synthesizers to support the distinctive horns’ arrangements and the hypnotic percussion grooves.
The engaging sound of “The Monkey Tapes” is always on a fine line between vintage and modern, warm and raw, hypnotic and danceable.
