(CD/LP/Digital) Record Kicks RKX035/RKX035LP, 2011-03-14

Sydney-based new afro-funk 10 piece outfit The Liberators include members of among its division, but for their first full-length they also call on the vocal talents of guests such as Jojo Kuo (Fela Kuti / Daktaris / Antibalas), Roxie Ray (Dojo Cuts / Underbelly) and Ghanian-born Afro Moses. The result is an incredible set of new afrobeat tunes and funky jazz-dance grooves proving the masterful musicianship of this band. Their self-titled debut effort is a solid example of the type of new afro-inspired funk that is rivaling the greatness of classics from 70s Africa. With a fierce array of super heavy guitars, percussion, and horns all put together with a range of sounds that really portray the full spectrum of their style, The Liberators serve up some sizzling treats! This album is a tightly delivered assortment of funky afrobeat tunes with a jazz-dance flavor, and we're happy to announce that we've invited the band for an exclusive mix on Paris DJs, showcasing their music, roots & influences, to be put online very soon...
