Bokoya - Migera / Rockwood Riddim (Double Single)

Bokoya is a four-piece jazz/hip-hop band from Cologne who plays improvised beat music - Leon Raum – drums, keys, Lukas Wilmsmeyer – guitar, bass, drums, Darius Heid – keys, synthesiser, synth-bass, bass and Ferdinand Schwarz – trumpet, synthesiser, Casio SA-26.

Like a four-headed human drum machine, Bokoya improvise, shape, and develop beats in the electric field of repetition and variation. It's impossible to put a tag on Bokoya's music. BADBADNOTGOOD, Dilla, Krautrock, Ambient and dub might work as rough reference points for the music but don't do it justice. After a sling of releases on Wadada Records, Bokoya are now signed to Melting Pot Music where they will release their new album Hausensession in October. The double single ‘Migera / Rockwood Riddim’ gives you a first taste of what to expect.
