The group blends tight groove-oriented arrangements with improvisational horn lines, spoken word and diverse guest vocalists to create a cinematic, streetwise sound. Over the years they have been praised for their energetic live shows and eclectic collaborations, bringing together musicians from different traditions to create something distinctly modern and soulful. Their music often balances danceable beats with melodic sophistication and social-minded lyrics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the BuzzBag collects a set of tracks that showcase the band's love of cross-cultural grooves and instrumental color. This release features extended arrangements, horn-driven melodies and percussion influences from both Caribbean and Eastern traditions, underscoring the band's worldbeat sensibility. Tracks like \"Istanbul Twilight\" and \"Freeway to Üsküdar\" highlight the group's interest in blending eastern motifs with Brooklyn funk, while pieces such as \"Keep It Together\" emphasize warm, soulful ensemble playing.
