Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival
On the second night of the Weekender, flame-throwing, jazz-punk collective, Melt Yourself Down, serve-up thundering bass-guitar hooks, unison sax anthems, and echo-laden vocal chanting. Mixing syncopated beats, punk mantras and Fela Kuti inspired sounds, United Vibrations lay down afro-beat-in-a-punk-style for some badass live sets. Clap!Clap!, the project of the Italian musician, producer and live performer Cristiano Crisci, also known as Digi G’Alessio, throw down a wild and hectic storm: warped tribal chants, clattering African polyrhythms and full-throttle energy. Soulful, funk-fuelled hip hop packed with infectious beats and lyrical dexterity from DJ Format. Ninja Tune’s Romare delivers a very special laptop set creating irresistible dancefloor grooves.Notsosilent will be turning heads with a specially selected set.
