Steel Pan Fusion

Modern Love presents Steel Pan Fusion performing the legendary album Moon Safari at The Jazz Café. This album offers Steel Pan Fusion an opportunity to further develop the ‘fusion’ of their name. Expect experimental arrangements of classics like 'Sexy Boy' and 'Kelly Watch the Stars', interspersed with solos from each of the 8-piece ensemble.

They will stamp their own unique imprint onto Air’s groundbreaking downtempo 1998 debut album with their contemporary take on steel pan, jazz and world music.

The impact of this album on the fledgling downtempo electronic genre cannot be understated. The 1990s had seen a wave of artists producing music to be played in “chillout" rooms, with DJs and promoters seeking to bring down the tempo and vibe in clubs around the world.

While Moon Safari fits perfectly into this bracket, it should be viewed as capable of delivering the emotional power of all great dance music, while containing enough authentic pop songs for it to be viewed as an accessible pop album in its own right.
