I am finally getting about sharing with all of you some of the great music I have been listening to lately: New and established groups from New York, the States and from Latin and IberoAmerica. I have some interviews and some LIVE shows to share as well as some recommended new/ recent CD releases.

Today I want to start with The Funk Ark. The band was celebrating the upcoming release of HIGH NOON, their second album, when I saw them. The DC based band played in NYC at Le Poisson Rouge as part of the ESL MUSIC SHOWCASE.
Here is a piece of the concert I recorded that night: “Hey Mamajo” (FREE DOWNLOAD - HERE).

What's not to love if you love music? Great ensemble, great compositions, great música. Great Afro and Latin beats. What a Funk! Enjoy!.
About: The Funk Ark's full tilt boogie makes High Noon a delight from the first note and comes close to capturing the energy of the band's live gigs. Mixing in elements of Afro-beat, with soulful Latin flavored heavy percussion, some classic DC go-go and New Orleans' Southern funk. The melodies suggest a late night jam that could be taking place in any club from Atlanta, GA to the Kalakuta Republic. The album's irresistible pulse never lets up, weaving a hypnotic spell that invites you to become one with the funk.
