Mehr Sound by RAGGABUND
RAGGABUND consists of artists who came together to lift the local reggae and dancehall music onto the next level. The groups most striking personalities are the southamerican brothers PACO MENDOZA & CARAMELLOW.
As a follow-up to their sold out debut album “Erste Welt”, Raggabund released their second album “Mehr Sound”. The musical diversity put forward is characterized by the album title, which translates in English to "More Sound". Whether Dancehall Ragga, Roots Reggae, Latinbeat, phat Hip-Hop or light ballads, Raggabund easily switches from genre to genre.
The album was recorded together with the Cologne-based producer Til “Tailormade” Schneider. The classically trained Tromboneplayer recently worked with artists like BAP or Promoe ("Looptroop") in the studio and played in the renowned bands of Lalo Schiffrin & Dee Dee Bridgewater, Paquito D'Rivera, Anthony B and Dellé from Seeed. A boost to the line-up is provided by fellow artists such as the legendary Macka B, DJ Vadim, Cajus & Roger from Blumentopf, Nosliw, Dr. Ring DIng and Mal Elevé from the band Irie Révoltés who were all invited to contribute their stylings to the album.
