Paa Kow- Ask
by Tim Wenger
Something different is often so refreshing, it is hard to put into words. Such was my reaction at hearing Paa Kow’s new record Ask. Simply put, this guys can drum. Like no one I’ve ever heard. Add on top of it an eclectic mix of West-African music (Paa Kow is a native of Ghana) and island flavor and the album is nearly impossible not to like, no matter your musical preference.
Danceable and ambient, the album maintains a steady upbeat manor throughout. Hints of jazz and reggae are tossed in by way of well-placed horn lines. The record is a solid listen from start to finish, even without understanding a word he says.
