Biography

Created in 2006, SETENTA, the Latin Soul band based in Paris, spreads a unique mix over the world scene and makes its summer moult in 2023 with latin "disco" funk flavors. In the context of strong swells crossing the planet, the combo borrows, with the requiered insolence, the cape of "On the road again " of Bernard Lavilliers. This monument of the french repertoire is dressed with a Nuyorican disco orchestration, on an Afro-Cuban rhythm called "mozambique", which propels this song again on the dancefloors and weaves a transgenerational link. The Frenchies, embarked on live tour and in recording studio by New-York legend Joe Bataan, are back with another piece, resolutely optimistic, that sounds like a universal rallying song. We Came to Shingaling! For their fifth album, Materia Negra, they returned to their roots: hard Latin funk with plenty of Afro-Latin percussion upfront in the mix contrasted with accents of lush vocal harmony and warm, breezy melody. SETENTA’s sound has always been soulful, with plenty of tropical Caribbean roots, but this time there is an even stronger Afro-centric theme and gritty psychedelic R&B angle, clothed in galactic, outer-space trappings, bringing to mind another forerunner, Mandrill, as well as the Afro-Futurist mothership vibe of Parliament-Funkadelic.
