The 16-track CD is a flowing journey of consciously deep, strong and moving tunes, which are played out in a fusion style with a base of tribal house and breakbeat. UNITED TRIBES amalgamates breakbeat, tribal tech-trance, psychedelic drum & bass (drum & space) and ambient auras. "UNITED TRIBES portrays the universality of music and the power it has to harmonise and heal the wonderfully diverse human differences in a celebratory fashion," Already being hailed as an unstoppable phenomenon, UNITED TRIBES represents KORU's spiritual quest to assimilate global influences from collaborators Worldwide. KORU has been in the UK for 10 years and so has a Brixton-London urban slant to the overall tribal feel, Sophisticated and raw. Nature with technolgy, black with white. For this, his second album, KORU has captured vibes from the internationally acclaimed Jorge Batista (session percussionist from Basement Jaxx), Joe Cooper (x Morcheeba) and Lewis B (Groove Chronicles). Other input includes contributions from Kateri, a Canadian Native American and top Maori rapper Te Kupu. ''One minute you are in the jungle the next minute you are in the middle of a big city. The technology is fused with the tribal feeling and hypnotic in a Polynesian dreamstate sort of way'' KORU draws from his conscious travels throughout both the inner and outerworld with multi-tribal spiritual guidance. "I have this vision of global and urban dance music combining to promote cultural harmony through a mutual appreciation of music," said KORU.

The NEW KORU album is is a varied, innovative, exciting, emotional and beautiful journey.
Starting dreamy - moving hip and funky it quickly arrives at a tribal fusion of tec sounds and throbbing rhythms. Then a live mix of Tribal Symphony - the big, epic Koru thrash
UT then moves into the dubby song based Psychedellic Drum and Bass Sound - Koru has been pioneering for a few years in top clubs such as Pendragon, MOS, Fabric.
The album winds down with some deep and moving chilled out beats.
There is a catchy poppy vibe about some of the material - yet never twee always deep.
United Tribes has involved people from many different cultures - Jamaica, India, Brazil, France, Italy, Africa, Aoetearoa, England, Malaysia and Chippenwa (native Canada).
It is an example of how we can all forget our fears of our differences and unite on a commen love.
This record is the sound of a big night partying in a city, fantastic days at a summer festival and the precious time spent with close friends and lovers. Your collection needs this CD.
