Not to be confused with KOKOKO!,- though both acts share a connection to Afrobeat - KOKOROKO is a London UK septet that just dropped their self-titled album on March 8th and while it is likewise fire, it's more of a smouldering fire. "Ti-de" the track I've linked to is a languid affair that builds from a solo bass line and starts layering elements including Oscar Jerome's guitar line (that totally has me thinking Tuareg tunes) and a trio of horns.

Afrobeat + Winnipeg should = cognitive disconnect.
Instead it ='s a really good listen.
