Ash Grunwald - Hot Mama Vibes

Have a read of the Hot Mama Vibes review I wrote for Beat Magazine.

Ash Grunwald

Album: Hot Mama Vibes
Label: Delta Groove/Shock
Genre: Blues/Electronic/Hip-Hop

Ash Grunwald brings to the streets his fifth studio album, Hot Mama Vibes. Recorded in two states, then fine-tuned by email and other digital ways, Hot Mama Vibes is a radical combination of Blues and Electronic with some Hip Hop thrown in there too. The three tracks ‘Walking,’ ‘Love Me’ and ‘Mind Playing Tricks’ were put together with Trials from the Hilltop Hoods. A fourth, ‘Parents,’ finds Trials bringing his whole Funkoars crew for a closing hip-hop face-off. All the other tracks range from a mellow, minimal blues vibe to amazing powerhouse stomping tracks.
You can really hear his love for junk percussion in quite a few tracks. Hence the earthy flavour of car doors struck with hammers and cymbals made from 44-gallon drums.

Hot Mama Vibes is the most primal concoction of elemental junkyard soul to stomp through your speakers this year.
