Mulatu I-can-barely-pronounce-it Astatke is besides Fela Kuti the biggest African jazz pioneer. His music is a fusion of Ethiopian jazz combined with tropical funk. His Ethio-jazz business has been going for already 45 years, but 4 years ago he got really known through his soundtrack in Jim Jarmusch’s ‘Broken Flowers’.
His funky company aka the Heliocentrics gives a perfect final touch to Mulatu's performance. They bring modern beats, some retro funk and jazzy sounds.
Together with an enthusiastic audience I enjoyed this concert!
