JUMBONICS - Rob Mac Production, Bass , Guitar, Keys. Matt Smooth Drums, Percussion. Norman Anderson vocals. Lucy Wilkins Violin, Keys, Bv's. Keeling Lee Guitar. Ali Live Keyboard Player. Nick Pamphilon keys.
Influences
The sound behind Jumbonics is a soul fired up from Booker T & The MG's, Jimmy Smith, Johnny Hammond, Ramsey Lewis, Buddy Rich, Gene Krupa, Louie Bellson, James Brown, 45 King, Brian Auger, Money Mark, Trouble Funk, The Meters, Madlib, Sweet Charles, Led Zeppelin, Cozy Powell, Blood Sweat & Tears..all heavy rockin'
Sounds Like
The original sound of Jumbonics was mostly instrumental crunchy jazz break & bass heavy tunes with a real snap, crackle & pop in the mix. Often laced with a jolly melody skipping over the top to enhance a vibrant mood.This is slowly adapting towards a more live soulful funk injected sound largely song based featuring Norman Anderson on vocals, Mac & Smooth on hand claps & mix duties..
The New Jumbonics long player is all done and ready for release on february 9th. It's called "Talk To The Animals" and represents a move away from the experimental instrumental sound of our first album "Super-Baxophone" to a more vocal song based selection which still veers east in places. We have a 7" single out at the moment (on Tru Thoughts as is all Jumbonics music) of Last Nite , a funky retake of The Strokes classic aimed straight for the dancefloor, and a deep moody string drenched beat work out called The Red One on the flip. We are currently preparing for a live show at cargo which is the LP launch on Feb 12th. We hope to play a few festivals over summer and some more club dates in Autumn.
