MO' HORIZONS - Sunshine Today
For eight years Mo'Horizons has been constantly releasing albums at the highest level. Now its time for the fourth longplayer - the first time on their own new imprint Agogo Records. `Sunshine Today`- the positive energy of the sun was always inspiration for the music of Ralf Droesemeyer and Mark 'Foh' Wetzler. Touring around the world - Australia, Brasil, Puerto Rico, South Africa and nearly complete Europe - and collecting music from all over, this new album contains a package full of clever used quotes from the last 50 years of music history. Soul Sugar, Latin Fruits, Jazzy Juice and Shakin' Clubbeats are the ingredients of this self-titled 'Groove Cocktail'. A brillant mixture of songs with jazzy attitude - think of Ramsey Lewis or Jimmy Smith - kind of percussive spiritual dance, straight latin, big downbeats or clubby dancefloor like Maceo meets Tito Puente. 12 compositions by Mo'Horizons and one latin cover version of Bill Withers classic 'Lovely Day' ('Dia Encantador'). Five singers, ten musicians from seven different nations (Italy, Belgium, Venezuela, Brazil, Chile, Senegal, Germany) are part of this soulful piece of music. Some of them are part of the Mo'Horizons Soundsystem, like Afro soul singer Denise M'Baye, Grammy winning percussionist Néné Vasquez or Camille de Bruyne from Belgium. Sun is shining. 'Sunshine Today' is out now.
