This limited Funk Night taps straight into Karl Hector & The Malcouns's long-standing fascination with rhythm and far-flung histories. 'Kingdom Of D'mt' from Thomas Myland, Zdenko Curlija and German producer and guitarist JJ Whitefield unfurls in a slow-burning haze, all sinuous guitar lines, dusty funk propulsion and modal phrases that hint at ancient ceremonies rather than modern studios. It moves patiently, drawing tension through repetition and tone rather than obvious peaks. On the flip, 'Safari Strut' shifts the energy, locking into a tougher groove with clipped riffs and restless percussion. Both sides reflect a collective deeply versed in Afro-psych, jazz and funk..
