The Winston Brothers is actually another studio project of shadowy Hamburger Sebastian Nagel of Mighty Mocambos notoriety. |
Here's the scoop...
Hot on the heels of their "Winston Theme" b/w "Boiling Pot" debut 45 released on Colemine Records, The Winston Brothers follow up with their debut full-length LP on November 18th. Drift is the name of the game, presenting eleven versatile cuts to invite listeners on an all-instrumental trip back to the future of funk.
The Winston Brothers are a modular studio project by Hamburg-based multi-instrumentalist and producer Sebastian Nagel (The Mighty Mocambos, Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band) and drummer / percussionist extraordinaire Lucas Kochbeck (The KBCS, Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band, Hamburg Spinners, Diazpora, Magic Source, Hotel Nineteen). Industry veterans with a penchant for analog music production, the two combine a boom bap state of mind with well-rounded funk acumen and able frequent collaborators to create dynamic arrangements that are both an audible nod to the genre’s past as well as a contemporary blend of like-minded organic styles.
Lacing heavy drums with juicy breaks, head-nodding grooves, scorching riffs and melodic instrumentation, Drift draws on the raw energy inherent to late ‘60s funk and takes it from there. Catchy, repetitive motifs gain musical momentum as they evolve into vibrant and autonomous soundscapes with a distinct drive of their own, ranging from incendiary to more laid-back and almost dreamlike. Strutting an irresistible bounce to their step, The Winston Brothers are poised to light up dance floors, river cruises and backyard BBQs alike.
The Winston Brothers' new album Drift will be available November 18th via Colemine Records. Click here to pre-order a limited edition copy on transparent dunkel brown vinyl in honour of Oktoberfest.
