Captain Planet and Chico Mann Reunite for a Slice of Chilled-Out Global Bass on “Aguacero”


Following up his wonderful Esperanto Slang album that dropped on Brooklyn label Bastard Jazz last year, the gumbo funk ambassador Captain Planet is back in super-producer form with a new track alongside his partner-in-bass Chico Manna, AKA Marqos Garcia of the New York afrobeat collective Antibalas.
