Influences: Influences are many but here's a quick doff of the cap to:Nu Jazz bands St Germain & Bugge Wesseltoft, Drum & Bass Bands Icarus & 4 Hero, DJs Kruder & Dorfmeister and David Holmes, Funketeers like Herbie Hancock, The Meters and James Brown (RIP), Hammond-meisters Jimmy Smith & Dr Lonnie Smith, labels including Blue Note, Atlantic, Acid Jazz & Motown. And last but not least, nutty genius Frank Zappa and natty genius Bob Marley...
Sounds Like: Herbie Hancock on speed, Jimmy Smith on downers, St Germain with less loops; the kind of sound you could get from Drum & Bass if it was played by real instruments; and all with a peppery sprinkling of basement chic and a lick of 70's cop show.
