If this album reminded me of 1970s sci-fi movie music, this album from Kutiman reminds me of 1970s Blaxploitation movie music. Ophir "Kutiman" Kutiel is from Tel Aviv. A talented producer in his own right, Kutiman is a composer who plays drums, keyboards, guitar, bass and just about everything else. His debut full-length is out now. A 13 track collection that will get your booty shaking and your head bobbing. If you are craving FUNK , Kuti (is your) man ! Listen: Kutiman ∞ [...]
Israeli funk, 60's super soul and the Modern Lovers doing acoustic reggae - I think. Kutiman - No groove Where I Come From The Stylistics - Funky Weekend The Modern Lovers - Coomyah Tags: Kutiman Tags: The Stylistics Tags: The Modern Lovers
This weekend as i was disrupting the lives of many a dear friend in New York, i was treated to a New Year's present courtesy of one Kutiman , who is a 25 year old musician from Tel Aviv. Kutiman (born Ophir Kutiel) has created a deeply researched and soulful slice of space funk on his self-titled album, which comes out this year via up-and-coming label Melting Pot Music . To diversify his aesthetic, he draws a little bit of Afrobeat and reggae into the fold as well, clearly moved by the time he spent in the Caribbean [...]
When people ask what kind of music we like we say Israeli afro-disco with scatting and trombones because this really is great and we really are that annoying.
afro-beat // funk Fusing vintage influences with the modern psychedelic, Israeli multi-instrumentalist and composer Ophir "Kutiman" Kutiel captures the essence of the great funk. Loaded with scratchy guitar riffs, horn arrangements, and the catchy vocal hooks of his affiliate musicians, wonderfully produced Kutiman's first full-length album delivers everything we love about hip-swaying funk and the feeling of the 70's. Dabbling in afro-beat, soul and disco grooves, Kutiman keeps my head spinning and my feet moving. Intoxicating experience for your body and soul. Kutiman - [...]

(photo by kofka) Kutiman - "Music is Ruling My World" I feel like I've gotten away with a crime listening to this song, my booty like the wheels of a getaway car over lined pavement. This song is all asphalt, as in ass-fault, as in fault line , as in line of coke , as in coca- cola , as in brown syrupy liquid, dripping down the back of your hand, onto the dancefloor, mixing with the loose change, dripping from my pockets, 'cause I got money to burn .

Another great compilation arrived this week. More MPM Sounds from Melting Pot Music . From the liner notes by Olski . "If you have a rough idea what MPM is about you will not be suprised to hear some soul, some funk and some jazz here. And some afro-beat and rock too. We are old school like that and we still consider this beautiful mash-up of styles and attitudes a long lost relative of hip-hop." I am gonna dedicate this post to a person unknown who sent me a great [...]
