about

kuronekomedia.lnk.to/OpenMyEyesRadio

This release is a first time collaboration between London label Wormfood and Paris-based Mawimbi.

All Vocals performed and composed by K.O.G
All music performed, written and produced by Tom Excell
Mastered by Bob Macc
Artwork by Tom Excell

ONIPA means ‘human’ in Akan, the ancient language of the Ashanti people of Ghana. It’s a message of connection through collaboration: from Ghana to London, our ancestors to our children, Onipa brings energy, groove, electronics, afrofuturism, dance and fire!

Born out of deep collaboration between long time friends K.O.G (Kweku of Ghana of K.O.G and the Zongo Brigade) and Tom Excell (MD, guitarist and writer of acclaimed jazz/ soul/ afrobeat pioneers Nubiyan Twist), the 4 piece live show features K.O.G on vocals, balafon and percussion, Tom Excell on guitar, percussion and electronics, Dwayne Kilvington (Wonky Logic) on synths and MPC and Finn Booth (Nubiyan Twist) on drums.

Already booked for The Great Escape (Brighton) and the main dance stage (Kamikaze) at Shambala Festival, it’s a fresh, raw, fiercely energetic new sound, fusing electronics and deep afro grooves. Think Konono no.1 meets Shangaan Electro, Songhoy Blues and Débruit….
