Cucoma Combo

LP version. Cucoma Combo represent, above all, the new boiling energy of pan-rhythmic music, the awakening dance of joy, the experimental space for ambitious arrangements and free-improvised parts of colorful horns. From Black Africa to South America, one travels on paths of Congolese soukuss and Amazonian carimbò, between accents of Colombian cumbia, kalimba vibes, and tribal voices. We find seeded traces of space-funk and afrobeat, with amazing acid keyboards and an enchanting female voice. The power of rhythm and in general the whole project is led by Marco Zanotti, a multifaceted drummer and fine poly-percussionist, expert of the African and South American sound universe. With his Classica Orchestra Afrobeat, he proudly took part in outstanding collaborations with Seun Kuti, Sekouba Bambino, and Baba Sissoko, as well as a prestigious participation in the Glastonbury Fest.
