Idris Ackamoor & The Pyramids Retrospective Mix by We Are The Horsemen by Strut Records published on 2016-06-13T17:08:26Z Idris Ackamoor & The Pyramids - 'We Be All Africans' Out Now on Strut Order: https://strut.lnk.to/AllAfricansSo The career arc of Idris Ackamoor & The Pyramids has been an unexpected but wonderful one. The band met in Ohio in the early 1970s, studied with jazz greats including Cecil Taylor, performed throughout Europe and Africa and released three independent albums before disbanding during the late '70s. Renown for their recordings grew over the years, culminating in Ackamoor reconvening the band in 2007. They have recorded the incredible new album 'We Be All Africans,' produced by Max Weissenfeldt at Philophon in Berlin, and are touring once again, sharing the stage with Floating Points on a recent tour. Here, DJ duo We Are The Horsemen (DJ Harv and Sub-One) take us through the original rare recordings which earned the band its reputation among connoisseurs of mind expanding jazz. The one-hour mix spans the band's entire career.
