Their suits make The Mighty Mocambos seem quite a serious outfit. But the sound of this Hamburg deep-funk septet is raw and unpolished – an absolute guarantee of a funk-soul-jazz fusion, performed with great verve. Dry beats meet mighty grooves while hip-hop and acid jazz elements are integrated spot-on. For their last album, the band was able to attract the hip-hop scene titan, Afrika Bambaataa, as their guest musician.
