The Bongo Hop @ Pllek

This genre bending venture offers a highly danceable transatlantic trip through cadence, currulao, high life, afro funk, semba, vallenato, dub… mixing electric heavenly vocals and hot brass. Influenced and inspired by artists such as Abelardo Carbono, Fruko, Amedée Pierre, Willie Colon & Hector Lavoe, L’orchestre PolyRythmo de Cotonou, and afro caribbean 70s stuff in general, it’s more than just that: it’s about traveling, getting lost, collecting and searching, keeping eyes and ears open to the unexpected, whether it’s around the corner, in a jungle or on a volcano.
