'Je Ka Jo (Demo Version)' from the forthcoming LANGUAGE LP where percussion lover Joe Claussell showcases his very special brand of organic Deep House once again.
With a brother – José Claussell - who is an acclaimed percussionist, composer and drummer, it is not really hard to tell where Joe Claussell gets much of his inspiration. A product of the 90’s NYC metropolitan music scene, who has overseen or been involved in some of the most notable Afro-Latin House records of that era and still today.
Je Ka Jo', explores these Afro-Latin roots and digs them right up out of the ground with the rhythmic beating of a myriad of drum instruments knocking along in harmony with a the strings from a comforting violin. Three note Funk guitar lick come in to seal it all together.
Another exceptional House record from Joe Claussell courtesy of Ibadan, to quench the thirst of those who like their music with a little bit more flavor.
Moodymann creates innovative soul funky music with deep 70s inspiration. The vocals are simply outstanding. A step back in time, 50 years ago! Superb. jef37
