In this project, Smokey Joe (French main musical mafia head) and The Kid aka “Senbeï,” (cheeky Parisian master of Turntablism), transport us back in time gangsters run streets of 1930’s Chicago.
With the help of their accomplices, these two gangsters mix Hip Hop and Electro with the groove and melodies of early 20th century Swing. Percussion solos played with scratches, beats and melodies banged out on the MPC, everything is performed live, there’s no doubt that Smokey Joe & The Kid know how to make a dancefloor go wild!!
Kidnapped, we retrieve consciousness in the middle of a crazy Block Party for a timeless Jam Session where urban poetry melts into the decadent energy of old speakeasies.
