Description:

The second album by the Imperial Tiger Orchestra, a promising new unit that sparks a crazy love affair with Mulatu Astake and the bewitching flavors of the dense golden age of Ethiopian jazz, and runs wild on the dance floor with a deep funk doughiness, has been remastered and reissued on LP with live recordings added. The second album of Imperial Tiger Orchestra has been remastered and reissued on vinyl with additional live soundtracks.

The fame of the album has resonated not only with world listeners, but also with rare groove diggers and floor-oriented club music fans. The sound, which has been called "Switzerland's answer to Mulatu Astake and Antibalas," has become thicker, more bewitching, firmer, heavier, and much larger in scale. The album pays homage to the golden age of Ethiopian jazz/pop with deep funk, rare groove, and spiritual jazz flavors.Traditional instruments such as kural (Ethiopian stringed instrument), ping (Thai stringed instrument), and kebero (Ethiopian drum) are blended with electronic instruments and electronics in just the right way to create a unique retro-futuristic feel.
