Professor Wouassa - Dangerous Koko



Debut album by Swiss-based afro-beat band Professor Wouassa. Features Duke Amayo, Chico Mann, Black Cracker, Korbo, Thais Diarra, Didier Awadi, Alina Amuri, Luthor…

In the humid slums of the city of Lausanne, Switzerland, Professor Wouassa develops a singular musical genre with roots in the African continent. These six sorcerers don't shy away from mixing afrobeat, high-life and ethio-jazz to their background of 60's soul, old funk and hip-hop. Their first album Dangerous Koko ! is an afrobeat bomb that features the participation of numerous international artists such as Duke Amayo (Antibalas), Chico Mann (Antibalas), Black Cracker (Grand Pianoramax), Korbo (Fanga) or Didier Awadi (Positive Black Soul). With mixing and mastering performed in Canada by Jason Jaknunas (The Soul Jazz Orchestra), it takes the genre to new levels.
