New Soul meets Jazz meets Dub.

Release date to be announced….watch this space !
"The songs here glisten with rich sultry sounds and jam with grooves wider than the Mississippi River....This is really good stuff! "
First Coast News NBC / USA
In 2007 Wet Cookies released their debut album “Earthling”, which effectively blended Jazz with elements of Dub and Electronic music. Although already carrying the band’s other major influence, their love for 70’s Soul Music, “Earthling” is all the more a Jazz-thing and as a purely instrumental album it was well received by music enthusiasts and the press.
Now in 2008 the Wet Cookies Collective has just completed their second album “Soul Protection” and as the title already suggestes the focus has shifted from Jazz to New Soul. The main part of the album consists of original songs which are complemented by a cover version and two remixes (i.e. Cameo’s “Word up” and Ken Boothe’s “When I Fall In Love”).
“Soul Protection” also showcases five singers, who were chosen by producers and bandleaders Bjoern Klein and Axel Hirn for their unique sound and vibe. The arrangements vary from subtle Jazz Ballads to lush Wall of Sound uptempo tracks, all played by a group of wonderfull musicians comprising a brass section, vibraphone and double bass for an extra low end.
The release date is still to be announced…watch this space !
