The Oracle Alt (guitar edit)

Bassist, producer & funk fiend | anomaly | anachronism | defiant demolisher of the pigeon-hole.

“The Funkestra has got that ‘what is hip’ attitude...more deep grooves than a 78 rpm record,” enthuses George W. Harris, Jazz Weekly.

On Dr Hypenstein, Redtenbacher's Funkestra brings their danceable brand of funk, laying down 13 of their funkiest grooves yet, from the fluty can't-stop-your-feet sounds of the title track to the heavy crunch of "Swagger," then letting the atomic dogs out with "Cave Canem" and the percolating "Funktionality."

London-based bassist, composer, arranger and bandleader Stefan Redtenbacher is the mastermind behind Dr Hypenstein, which includes the bass-driven "Bass Face" and "Bassbulator," the dare-you-not-to-move "Right On It" and "Supergalactic," and expands on previous material to incorporate electronic sounds in all the while standing proud with the history of funk.

This is the eighth album from Redtenbacher's Funkestra, which regularly performs at (and packs) London's legendary 606 Club and other established London venues. Guest musicians have included Fred Wesley, Alfred "Pee Wee" Ellis, "Doc" Kupka, Lee Thornburg and Lenny Pickett from Tower of Power, Eric Krasno of Soulive, Stanton Moore of Galactic and the horn sections from Prince, Incognito and The Brand New Heavies.

The Austrian-born Redtenbacher fell for Herbie Hancock and Maceo Parker early on, then studied at the Vienna Conservatory and Boston's Berklee College of Music, and has recorded and performed with legends including Steve Winwood, Jack Bruce, Amy Winehouse, Lulu, Mica Paris, and Herb Alpert.

"Stefan, you know what the funk is about!” (Fred Wesley of the JB’s)

In music the passions enjoy themselves

Chico Chica is a jazz-pop vocal group comprising Hilary Cameron (voice/piano), Tom Hannah (voice/guitar) and Barbara Snow (voice/flugelhorn). The light-hearted and tightly-rehearsed show consists of original songs in English, French, Spanish and Arabic. The trio perform them with style, humour and passion, using three-part harmonies and dazzling improvisation. This, along with Tom Hannah's performance poetry and dancing, make the Chico Chica show one of the most entertaining jazz spectacles on the London scene. The album Mélangerie was released in 2012 enjoying airplay and press attention. This was followed by an extensive and successful UK tour.
