Con Todo El Mundo
Formed of Laura Lee on bass, Mark Speer on guitar, and Donald āDJā Johnson on drums; globetrotting Texan trio Khruangbin present their second album āCon Todo El Mundoā, set for release on 26th January 2018.
Whereas their 2015 debut album āThe Universe Smiles Upon Youā was influenced by 60s and 70s Thai cassettes and compilations of southeast Asian pop, rock and funk, āCon Todo El Mundoā hops east over India to take inspiration in similarly under discovered funk and soul sounds of the Middle-East, particularly from Iran. Laura Lee explains the albumās title: "My grandpa would always ask me 'Como me quieres?' ('how much do you love me'?), and he'd only ever accept one response. 'Con todo el mundo' (With all the world)."
Throughout āCon Todo El Mundoā, Laura Leeās melodic low-end theory, Markās lyrical, free-role guitar lines, and DJās ever-steady, ever-ready backbeat form something greater than their parts. A vibe-synchronous soul-unit travelling the planet, honing their craft, absorbing the sights, sounds and feels from cultures across the globe, processing them through the Khruangbin filter and gifting the result...with all the world.
