{"product_id":"imperial-tiger-orchestra_addis-abeda_2010_mdl","title":"Addis Abeda","description":"Ethiopia revisited! Mental Groove Records reveals one of Switzerland's best-kept secrets... Imperial Tiger Orchestra. Ever since Jim Jarmush's \"Broken Flowers,\" Ethio-jazz has been in vogue, and \"Ethiopiques\" compilations have helped introduce this music to the world. In recent years, some leading figures of this movement (including Mulatu Astatke and Meturia Getatchew) have modernized the style by blending it with other musical trends... Ethio-jazz, like Afrobeat before it, is thus beginning to spread and mutate. The logical next step is for young musicians to take it up, and Switzerland's Imperial Tiger Orchestra is undeniably the next generation. Their first album, \"Addis Abeda,\" is therefore due out in November and features brilliantly re-interpreted Ethio-jazz standards. But far from being a mere homage to the masters of the genre, Imperial Tiger Orchestra infuses this music with great originality by adding their own unique ingredients: electro groove, noise... all while preserving the natural and hypnotic quality of the music. Imperial Tiger Orchestra, while respecting the foundations of Ethio-jazz, brilliantly modernizes this style whose hidden treasures we continue to discover. Mulatu Astatke, who was not mistaken, invited Imperial Tiger Orchestra to open for several of his European concerts.","brand":"Imperial Tiger Orchestra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55311854109016,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/7640110937006.jpg?v=1760404785","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en\/products\/imperial-tiger-orchestra_addis-abeda_2010_mdl","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
