.....Now that you're all energetic & in music in-haling mode, check this new sly soundin slice of freshness from The Koru Licks with their debut self-titled EP described as.....
"A collection of tracks we made within the first few months of playing together as a band. It was recorded a while ago at The Kitchen Studios in Greenlane. A nice sampler of our sound that is going to evolve and grow with each new release."
I think it's a "sly sample" aka teaser of their sound. No doubt after listening from Intro to Outro your left wanting to here more from the band. Don't know why but the words Sly Jazz come to mind when saying what this sounds like. I mean from the band name & band members names like Truento, B Mynor, Miso Shiru, doesn't that sound pretty sly (my bad if I'm on my own buzz) not to mention their sound; Sly fusion of Jazz, soul, funk & young musical NZineering. I can picture the bro B Mynor n Truento with sly smiles randomly through live sets lol
Favourites would have to be One Take (with a nice upbeat bassline & Jennifer Zea!) & Riosynth (with Lisa Preston layin some hearty/mature vocals & solid switch up on the beat) The sound is cool & for the meantime (while we wait for more) just rotate this slice of vinyl viagra as the groove of The Koru Licks makes your head nod & get up to other sly activity.
It's mean as seeing homies your age that you know steppin onto the NZ Music scene, dope as (and gives us not down for town usually guys a chance to get outta the garage for a bit). Check the bros live @ Rakinos this Sunday
