Hailing from Amsterdam, New Cool Collective Big Band (or NCCBB as they shall now be known) are an 8-piece jazz combo / 21-piece big band playing a crossover of jazz, cumbia, afro, surf, boogaloo and more. Released on the highly acclaimed Japanese label P-Vine, "Enter The Dragon" b/w "Misirlou" is a vibrant representation of what the band are all about - frenetic grooves, advanced muscianship, heritage jazz models, modern experimentation.
Two tracks that pay tribute to golden age cinema (Bruce Lee's Enter The Dragon & Dick Dale's surf romp made famous on Pulp Fiction) whilst injecting their own flair and flamboyancy cooly into proceedings. A modern jazz collectors gold nugget - don't sleep.
