Mwalim

Awakened by a Noon Day Sun

2016-12-05

Mwalim aka DaPhunkee Professor brings his compilation of jazz-funk compositions, with instrumental music that sounds like it is infused with nature. You can hear a multitude of his various influences throughout his songs, melding together a sound that is pretty unique.

My personal favorite is the first track on the album, Wade in the Water.
