Set one will be a focus on the psychedelic Afrobeat Jazz ensemble that is Na Moja.
This trio is a highly inventive jazz outfit that seamlessly integrates electronics to fill out the sound ,as if many more musicians took the stage. Harmonies ,Subsonic Bass, Dub Delays and Surreal FX are interwoven amongst instrumental prowess and traditional techniques of the highest calibre.
Matt will have an entire horn section harmonizing off his clarinet, Shenzo at times will be a one man quartet and Benjamin uses his voice to trigger the bass lines whilst playing drum kit controlling the entire rhythm section from one brain.
Joined by Bobby Singh Tabla virtuoso the second set will be dynamically matched to the nuances of indian classical drums. Bobby And Ben have traveled to India countless times and when they combine become a fantastic percussion duo over 15 years in the making. This will allow the melodic section to soar and finish the night with an Indian Jazz sensibility.
