Premiere: Kapote makes 'The Body Move' with his infectious bass-line

Pure funk inspired house from the Berlin producer

Berlin based producer Kapote, co-leader of the Toy Tonics label, is back with more jazz funk inspired material on ‘The Body Move’ EP, including the slap-bass title track that delivers an infectious groove.

Having recently emerged in the past few years releasing exclusively on his Toy Tonics imprint, Kapote has enjoyed a bit of early success, earning the top spot on both Traxsource and Juno for his track ‘The Nose’ released in November 2016. Now he’s set to drop his first EP of 2017 with more of his distinct, funk-fueled style.

With a strong background in playing keyboard and bass in jazz bands, Kapote’s talents shine through on ‘The Body Move’. The bass melody paired with the warm harmony of his piano is pure, feel-good dance music at its finest. Steady percussion completes the track and showcases his aptitude for dancefloor focused mid-tempo house.

Kapote’s ‘The Body Move’ EP is set for release on April 21. Purchase here
