They are all passionate diggers who love playing music from all over the world, something that’s evident in their productions as well. Encompassing Jazz, African and Latin sounds to Soul, Funk, Disco, House and even Techno.
As far as inspiration goes they mention Donald Byrd, Fela Kuti and Theo Parrish. Their creative output has led them to release on such fine labels as Sofrito, Highlife and most recently Basic Fingers. Fans of Alma Negra includes Gilles Peterson, Ben UFO, Axel Boman, Detroit Swindle, Africaine 808 and Tim Sweeney.
