“Giorgio’s Brother” is the Lack of Afro take on Eddie Roberts’s fine nu-jazz bopper of the same name.

Featuring rough drums and screaming Hammond, this is a must for funk fans everywhere and is the first release from Lack of Afro on Italian label Record Kicks.

Flip for the remix of Lack of Afro’s debut single, “Wait A Minute”. Totally different from the original, this one features an infectious piano lick, scattershot drums and even a bit of Sammy Davis Jr!

    “The New Mastersounds’ fret plucker steps out on his own once again, this time getting a lovingly crafted rework from Freestyle Records’ wunderkind Lack of Afro, who beefs up the drums and adds some stonking Hammond work for another masterclass in modern funk. Fans of Quantic will lap this up!”
