The B side kicks off with the grand return of the Golden Girl of Funk, Gizelle Smith, a sister who’s been busy taking on the world. New Jersey legend and Big Crown associate Mr Lee Fields is guest of honour for Where Do We Go From Here before a horn workout brings us to a close with Macumba. B-girls and b-boys are called to the dancefloor as S uperstrada and Concrete Stardust commence, all buzzing synth lines and relentless drums. Side A welcomes us aboard with joyous instrumental stomper Preaching To The Choir, and a call to build bridges from Mocambo chanteuse and percussionist Nichola Richards, duetting with emerging rap talent, New York MC JSwiss. Crossing generations, this album introduces some of the world’s youngest funk talent to step up and rub shoulders with soul and rap legends, soul sisters, an elder statesman composer/arranger and a brand new emerging artist out of New York.Īs with all Mocambo releases, the two sides of the record have been meticulously sequenced by theīand. Eschewing traditional recording methods, this DIY crew areĬommitted to driving forwards, and 2066 sees them at the height of their powers, broadcasting a call for unity.Īfter reaching new audiences worldwide and earning critical praise for their two long players on Brooklyn’s Big Crown Records in their tropical guise as Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band, the band have reassembled and refocused in their original form, the workhorses behind dozens of 45s on the Mocambo label and beyond. The Mighty Mocambos have returned - stronger, tighter and hungrier than ever.Ĭarrying blistering funk lines in their fingers and worldly influences in their hearts, the unique and distinctive Mocambo sound is not one to be confused with retro bands trying to recapture an era. Still one of the best tracks to come out in a few years IMO Comment by Tui & Laįuck yeah man.In a world awash with negativity and fear, you are invited to climb aboard the Mocambo mothership where all colours and creeds are celebrated. I really like your voice Comment by TradeMarc Multimedia
That every single record could sound like thisīut they could never sound like this Swiss I look myself in the mirror and wish nothing I ain't here to just cast stones, I should do better,
Post about it get some retweets, make it clever I highly doubt it got no reason for a new perceptionĪll us together go and take what we should really get, but it's whatever I wish change did come with a new election Impossible I just wish I could be the exception Give me success without sacrifice, wishful thinking I think I'm doing good thus far but 'fore I'm done I wish, I could go to every major label take they publishing and give it right back to the artists I wish there was no industry wit it if I be honest
I wish I could be ignorant to industry like when I was a novice I wish I knew the country where my family had startedįor a brother like me figuring it out'll be the hardest I look back I wish to know more about my history I wish to own something can't nobody evict me I wish I could have half the women all around the city
I wish, if there was one murder in a week it would be world news and not a hundred everyday occurrence Or at least never had guns so if you wanna kill someone you had to earn it Scratch that lets just keep it a surprise for the time now I wish a crystal ball could show me what the future holds "I Wish" is a collaboration between emcee JSWISS and hip-hop/jazz band Temple5 that comes right on time at the end of the year as the perfect medicine for a world that has been through a rough 2016.
