HHY & THE MACUMBAS - Throat Permission Cut (Silo)

Hailing from Porto, HHY & The Macumbas is an ensemble comprised of electric bass, brass, percussion and electronics, written and dubbed by producer, HHY.

Comprising an ever-mutating ensemble of musicians from the Portuguese underground music scene, The Macumbas range from four to ten players on stage, presenting frantic and enigmatic live shows which bring to mind the film works of Kenneth Anger, the cross-continental Dubbing of Sherwood as well as the raw trance-inducing rhythms of Haiti and North Africa. They’ve been actively playing concerts, hitting up festivals like Sonar and Primavera Sound.

The Macumbas feverish Skull-Cave sound is now embedded into the vinyl grooves of their much anticipated debut record, Throat Permission Cut, and will be released on vinyl in 2014 on the new label SILO curated by Raz Mesinai, Jonathan Uliel Saldanha.
