Club Des Belugas - Forward (2012)

2012 album from the German Nu-Jazz outfit. An hour with Club des Belugas is a wonderful experience and happens roughly like this: The opener is power-swing which raises the roof, then afro-beat explosions and funk fireworks, cushioned by wallowing jazz n soul, and at the end they pamper you with soul! Forward is the sixth album from Club des Belugas and for over 10 years they have been producing contemporary, stylish music in the European club and lounge scene. They cover swing, jazz, funk, latin, afro and soul styles from all corners of the world and from all eras that are not only used as an inspiration, but developed consequently for today s music tastes. Forward keeps moving in the truest sense of the word and is funky as hell!
