Jupiter & Okwess

Jupiter & Okwess

Congolese funk, Afrobeat and soul directly from the Congo capital, Kinshasa. You’re invited to savour Jean-Pierre Bokondji, aka Jupiter's latest recipe, the Okwess (‘food’ in the Kibunda language) which is the fruit of all the encounters and influences he has absorbed during his many journeys around the world. It’s a recipe based on perfect alchemy, enriched by contributions from Damon Albarn of Blur and Gorillaz, violinist Warren Ellis of Nick Cave’s Bad Seeds and Robert Del Naja, aka 3D of Massive Attack.
