Ngazzokah plays an exiting blend of funk, rock and jazz creating a unique style self- proclaimed SplashP(H)unk.

 

03.1 SHORT BIOGRAPHY

Ngazzokah started in Delft 1992 playing mostly Miles’ electric covers (Tutu, Amandla) and gradually working on own compositions. Eventually they recorded a CD in 2000.

Personnel includes: screaming synth, sparkling guitar, pulsating drums, powerfull bass and two saxes with compelling riffs.

Their repertoire includes covers, arrangements of covers and own material. Everything is played instrumental giving way to improvisation and a loose structure, so creating a spontanuous atmosphere.

Instead of each bar filled with F-16 chords, a dynamic interplay and a unique group sound.
