. after the first 7" single release in the field of afrobeat .
. by kaleta & zozo afrobeat, tramp records does it again, .
. this time with a monster double-sider by the prolific ray .
. lugo a.k.a kokolo. straight from the streets of new york .
. city, ray continues to bring innovation to the afrofunk .
. table with "the way up", one of the hottest tracks of .
. 2007. cleverly weaving funk, afrobeat and hip hop .
. elements, this song is a sure-shot for any dance floor in .
. need of "something special" and reaffirms kokolo's place .
. as one of the funkiest and most original groups on today's .
. international scene. .
. .
. kokolo is well known by djs and afrobeat fans all over the .
. world, but not only due to this fact is this 7" release .
. going to be huge and hopefully one of the best selling .
. ones in the 1000 series. and there is no doubt why. the .
. intro gives people a taste of what's coming up, actually .
. no tricky arrangements, just a plain funky groove. the .
. whole thing takes off when the band kicks in. the rhythm .
. section is just killer, the horns arrangement reminds me .
. of "kelen ati len" by orchestre du bawobab and it simply .
. sounds fantastic. the vocals add an amazing flavour to it, .
. making it a must have even for hip hop freaks. .
. so, nothing else has to be added, come on and join the .
. tramp camp, the schedule for this fall/winter is already .
. set, expect some more essential releases! .
