Debut
LP
from
The
Winston
Brothers!
Featuring
members
of
Bacao
Rhythm
&
Steel
Band.
Hot
on
the
heels
of
their
debut
45
released
on
Colemine
Records,
German
funk
powerhouse
The
Winston
Brothers
re-up
with
their
first-ever
full
length
LP.
“DRIFT”
is
the
name
of
the
game,
presenting
eleven
versatile
cuts
to
invite
listeners
on
an
all-instrumental
trip
back
to
the
future
of
funk.
But
make
no
mistake:
Though
audibly
steeped
in
the
deep
funk
tradition,
this
retrophile
outfit
is
anything
but
dusty.
The
Winston
Brothers
are
a
modular
studio
project
by
Hamburg-based
multi-instrumentalist
and
producer
Sebastian
Nagel
(The
Mighty
Mocambos,
Bacao
Rhythm
&
Steel
Band)
and
drummer
/
percussionist
extraordinaire
Lucas
Kochbeck
(The
KBCS,
Bacao
Rhythm
&
Steel
Band,
Hamburg
Spinners).
Industry
veterans
with
a
penchant
for
analog
music
production,
the
two
combine
a
boom
bap
state
of
mind
with
well-rounded
funk
acumen
and
able
frequent
collaborators
to
create
dynamic
arrangements
that
are
both
an
audible
nod
to
the
genre’s
past
as
well
as
a
contemporary
blend
of
like-minded
organic
styles.
Lacing
heavy
drums
with
juicy
breaks,
headnodic
grooves,
scorching
riffs
and
melodic
instrumentation,
“DRIFT”
draws
on
the
raw
energy
inherent
to
‘60s
/
‘70s
funk
and
takes
it
from
there.
Catchy,
repetitive
motifs
gain
musical
momentum
as
they
evolve
into
vibrant
and
autonomous
soundscapes
with
a
distinct
drive
of
their
own,
ranging
from
incendiary
to
more
laid-back
and
almost
dreamlike.
Strutting
an
irresistible
bounce
to
their
step,
The
Winston
Brothers
are
poised
to
light
up
dance
floors,
river
cruises
and
backyard
BBQs
alike.
