New Cool Collective - Trippin' (2005)

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Perhaps no longer so "new", but this Dutch octet remains as cool as ever. Fronted by saxophonist Benjamin Herman and trumpeter David Rockefeller, the NCC specialise in a smart brand of dance-jazz-funk that foregrounds the percussion-driven rhythm section. The band toys with retro concepts of sound and style without feeling the need to become full-on revivalists. The second disc is a collaboration, with Afrobeat pioneer Tony Allen who temporarily replacing Joost Kroon on the drums.
