About Me

It may sound like a full salsa band but in reality this unique sound is created by the six-piece a-capella group Vocal Sampling. Using only their voices, their cupped hands and their own bodies they create a full range of timbres, textures and rhythms to dazzling effect. All the instruments of the Latin Orchestra - percussion, horns, keyboard, bass - are vocally reproduced with astonishing accuracy, virtuoso technique and real imagination. Add to this a dynamic, theatrical stage presence and the infectious swing of Cuban music and you get a performance as funky and exciting as it gets. “jaw-dropping, crazy stuff” (Evening Standard). New CD release planned for 2006! I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

Sounds Like: “MUSICAL MAGIC. Vocal Sampling must rank as one of the most extraordinary groups in the world... So effective is it that initially you think they must be using backing tapes, or that the real musicians are hidden off-stage. They are not, and even the brass and flute parts are created only by their six voices. Their timing was impeccable, their presentation theatrical and their repertoire imaginative.” – The Times
