Kito Jempere Band - Live Recordings (2015 - 2018) (2018)

Six tracks recorded live at various times by St Petersburg's Kito Jempere and his troupe of electronic experimentalists that show off their musical versatility. The Jimi Tenor-featuring title track and "Ampa (Live)" channel melancholic 80s synth-pop, "Tomahawk (Live)" conjures visions of an Arab souk in outer space, the energetic "Kusya (Live)" is without doubt the fattest, squelchiest Afro-acid fusion you'll hear all week, "Uohha (Live)" is a soul-infused downtempo cut, while "Ampa (Live TV" takes an unexpected turn into acoustic territory, complete with heartfelt, near-falsetto vocal. An EP that could find fans in the dance and indie camps alike.
