“IBRAHIM ELECTRIC ‘KICKS ASS’! THESE 3 YOUNG MUSICIANS DISPLAYS SOME SERIOUSLY LARGE RESERVES OF ENERGY... THIS IS BETTER THAN VIAGRA!” - Information, DK
IBRAHIM ELECTRIC has within the last couple of years been one of the most popular European jazz groups....and their debut-CD was already a best seller before it's release!
These 3 personal instrumentalists have, besides the popularity of this group, made a name for themselves as some of the most striking on their respective instruments in Denmark (Stefan Pasborg was voted ’New Name of The Year’ at Danish Music Awards Jazz 2004).
Together they're exploring the borders between jazz, rock, afro, funk and tries to find new ways through the ‘bush’.
Own compositions together with classics from among others Eddie Harris, Jimi Hendrix and Nat Adderley are presented with super energy, good sound and plain raw swing.
The inspirations are among musicians like: Fela Kuti, Ali Farka Toure, Wishva Mohan Bhat, Albert King, Booker T. & the MG's, Tony Williams Lifetime, Jimmy Mcgriff etc.
With the main focus on the energy, this trio makes the trip all the way to the outskirts and back with their swingin’ soundscapes.
Hey Ib El, tak for en masse hede rytmer, lækre riffs og spændende solo, som varmer selv her på en kold vinterdag... jeg håber at kunne se jer i KBH d. 27 dec. Kan man købe jeres T-shirts der?
Hey Ibrahim! Selvom det ikke blev en vinyl, har jeg med stor glæde købt jeres CD, og den er pisse fedt! Især Year Of The Golden Pig, African Painkiller og Titelnummeret er jeg helt vilde med! Apropos ny musik, har jeg uploaded 2 helt friske loops, som I er meget velkomne til smutte forbi og høre! Håber snart at høre jer igen! Er stadig ikke kommet mig over oplevelsen til Aarhus jazzuge på Klostertorv! YEAH!
Er lige kommet hjem fra jeres koncert på studenterhuset Århus og hold kæft en fed koncert! Klart den fedeste af de 3 koncert jeg har set med jer! Overvejer at tage til Ålborg og se jer igen! Håber at i får lavet leslie'en igen!
For satan... I er for herlige... Først med jeres sorte masker, som I oven i købet får publikum til at iføre sig. Derefter med jeres mini-instrumentarrangement. Man bliver jo helt mundlam :)
