TheFlyingCarpet have a very special trip this week. We have with us on the carpet Ray Lugo, charismatic figure of the new york city combo Kokolo, moving from afrobeat, funk and latin influences.
We will discover the trajectory of the group, from the foundation in 2001, in Lower East Side of the “big apple”, to the last album Heavy Hustling, as well as the musical roots and the motivations of Ray.
This is the playlist:

Kokolo - “The Grunt” (from the LP Heavy Hustling)
Kokolo - “The Way Up“ (from Love International)
Kokolo - “Let Compassion Be Your Fashion” (Love international)
Kokolo - “Mister Sinister“ (from the LP More Consideration)
Kokolo - “Candela“ (More Consideration)
Kokolo - "Root to the Fruit" (More Consideration)
[excerpt of] Was (Not Was) - "Tell Me That I'm Dreaming" [Traditional 12" Remix] (from the compilation “Ze 30: Ze Records 1979-2009”)
Kokolo - "Soul Power" (Heavy Hustling)
Kokolo - "Mind power" (Heavy Hustling)

And, if they play nearby you, dont hesitate: go check it, smile, dance and sweet.
Enjoy this trip and stay tuned!
