By re-working the original magic drum patterns from the Afrobeat master Tony Allen, Nu Guinea created a compilation of tracks which is charged by a voluminous electronic jazz-Psyche funk imprint. For this release, Comet records teamed up with Early Sounds recordings, the berlin label also home to duo berliners Nu Guinea. Nu Guinea – The Tony Allen Experiments LP due to be out in February 2016.
The Naples formed, Berlin-based duo Nu Guinea, is a project that arose out of jam sessions, melting synthesizers with instruments, containing a handmade sound that is not aiming for perfection but genuineness.
It can be understood as a steadily shaping form, always open for collaborations with other musicians.
They’ve previously collaborated with singer Wayne Snow (fellow berliner artist on Comet ) for the vocal edit of Nu World, also delivered a remix for Wayne Snow ʻRosie Epʼ both recently released on Tartelet records.
