Description

Mr Bongo presents a new and exciting collaborative project with Swedish label Piano Piano Records. Hearing the Swedish outfit Sven Wunder for the first time is as refreshing as an ice-cold Limoncello after an Italian meal. One of those bands that feel instantly familiar like an old friend, yet simultaneously fresh and new. Straight away we fell in love with their sound and knew we had to work with them.

The Sven Wunder ‘Wabi Sabi’ 7" is the second collaborative release between Mr Bongo and Piano Piano Records. ’Wabi Sabi’ is Sven Wunder’s follow up to the already contemporary cult-classic album ‘Doğu Çiçekleri (Eastern Flowers) from 2019. Not one to be complacent and recreate a carbon copy of their previous works, Sven Wunder switched from the psychedelic-Turkish-funk sounds of ’Doğu Çiçekleri’ to the Japanese inspired ethereal funk of ‘Wabi Sabi’ We have selected the tracks ‘Hanami’ and ‘Shinrinyoko’ for this collector’s edition 7". Japanese artists such as Hozan Yamamoto, Tadao Sawai, Kazue Sawai, spring to mind, but also David Axelrod and Dorothy Ashby on the beautiful string-led ‘Hanami’ with its laid-back funk breaks. ‘Shinrinyoku’ has a slightly more raw cinematic-funk sound, yet is cushioned with warm strings and tripped-out keys – pure, rare-library music vibes.

We are delighted to be able to release these amazing tracks, cut at the Timmion Records Cutting Lab in Finland.
