Goatman Rhythms Black Vinyl Edition

Debut album by Goatman, a new solo project by one of the members of the
Swedish collective Goat. Recorded in late 2017 the 6 tracks on Rhythms reveal a
true collision of African Rock, Jazz, Reggae, Gospel and Psych, but all put through
the famous Goat filters. From the Fela Kuti`esqe drums and horns jam of Jaam Ak
Salam, to the frantic gospel-jazz of Carry the Load. From the fuzzed Can via the
`Bristol sound' track of Hum Bebass Nahin, to the cinematic, Spacemen 3`esqe
drones of the album closer Baaneexu. The end result is quite an astonishing and
very unique album. Goatman plays all the instruments on the album bar some
additional drums by Hanna Östergren from fellow Swedish bands Hills and Träd,
Gräs & Stenar, and an added horn section courtesy of Johan Asplund, David
Byström. Tracks Jaam Ak Salam and Aduna feature the very special voice of
Senegalese singer Seydi Mandoza. You will also hear the vocals of Swedish based
singers Amanda Werne on Carry the Load and Amerykhan on Hum Bebass Nahin.
Goatman's passion for traditional and contemporary music from around the world
can be clearly heard when listening to Rhythms. The level of authenticity and
willingness for exploration that Goatman has captured truly shows a fanatical
respect for the music he is greatly influenced by.
