Our Take

Idris Ackamoor & The Pyramids have once again transported us to a realm where groovy rhythms and futuristic sounds collide in their latest album "Afro Futuristic Dreams." Ackamoor's hauntingly soulful saxophone melodies weave seamlessly with the Pyramids' hypnotic percussion, creating a sonic journey that is equal parts entrancing and exhilarating.

From the funky basslines of "Tango of Love" to the transcendental chants of "Eternity," each track on this album is a testament to the band's ability to push the boundaries of genre and create music that is truly out of this world. It's as if Sun Ra himself has returned to Earth to bless us with his cosmic wisdom through the vessel of Ackamoor & The Pyramids.

The Afrobeat influences are unmistakable, but there is also a hint of psychedelic rock thrown into the mix, making "Afro Futuristic Dreams" a genre-defying masterpiece that will keep you grooving from start to finish. It's the kind of album that demands to be played on repeat, each listen revealing new layers of complexity and beauty.

In a world where music often feels formulaic and uninspired, Idris Ackamoor & The Pyramids stand out as true innovators, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the realm of Afrobeat and beyond. "Afro Futuristic Dreams" is a testament to their talent and a must-listen for anyone who craves music that is as thought-provoking as it is danceable.
