about

C'est le caractère spirituel, l'inventivité rythmique et l'énergie intense des musiques afrocubaines qu'il nous tient à coeur de retranscrire. En les colorant de nos univers respectifs, nous y apportons des touches de soul, de jazz ou encore de timba pour un son original construit à huit !

Révélation Jazz Magazine "Une atmosphère unique, spacieuse voir planante tout en gardant son énergie festive et sa force charnelle."

Album Jazz de la Semaine FIP

"Un très bel hommage aux orishas [...] et aux musiques afrocubaines, au jazz à la soul." Club Jazz à FIP

"Coup de coeur pour un album d'une puissance sensorielle rare." Jazz Rhones Alpes

"Latopa [...],conjugue à merveille aisance technique, créativité et prise de son au-dessus de tout soupçons. Toutes les cases sont cochées.” Que Tal Paris
