Percussion storm
Corey Mwamba presents storming free punk and Afro-percussive devotional music, and a tribute to the late Abdul Wadud.
Corey Mwamba presents the best in improvised music.
UK trio Alan Wilkinson, Alex Ward and Jem Doulton conjure up an apocalyptic punk storm complete with lightning-rod guitar riffs, thunderous drums and the unrelenting hail of a blowing horn. Plus, new music from Eddie Wakili Hick (of Sons of Kemet fame) and his forthcoming debut release as a band leader. His group, the NOK Cultural Ensemble, celebrates diverse percussive styles from across the African diaspora. With inflections of propulsive dub and devotional music, the band take inspiration from the ancient Nigerian NOK civilisation.
Elsewhere in the programme, Corey plays a track in tribute to the late cellist Abdul Wadud. A distinguished voice as an improviser, he was a creative force in experimental and classical music scenes, playing with the likes of George Lewis and Arthur Blythe.
