Kojato, one of the most promising projects of modern Afro-Jazz, started in 2010 with an amazing feature on the Bahama Soul Club’s album “Bossa Nova Just Smells Funky”. Producer Oliver Belz, the man behind The Bahama Soul Club and The Juju Orchestra was deeply impressed by the combined talents of the fabulous keyboard player and arranger André Neundorf and the inimitable multi-instrumentalist and singer Kojo Ebenezer Samuels.
Kojato is really, simply great music with a colourful sound, combining afrolicious Bossa-Jazz with 70s Funk and 60s Soul. Preview and purchase via Bandcamp (release date November 11).
