作为Kokoroko, Oscar Jerome和Julia Biel的鼓手，Ayo Salawu将他的击鼓风格描述为他成长过程中接触到的各种流派的融合，并在世界上许多不同的地方表演。从在锅碗瓢盆上演奏福音音乐，然后搬到尼日利亚，接触到非洲节拍和雷鬼音乐等流派，最后搬到英国，接触到hiphop、放克和爵士等流派。他尤其受到乐队/艺术家的影响，如大地之风与火、库尔与The Gang和迈克尔·杰克逊。
在世界著名的利文斯顿录音室录制，这张专辑试图捕捉阿约认为他标志性的演奏风格，包括丛林、嘻哈、放克和非洲节拍的表演。在录音风格方面，我们试图捕捉一种枯燥而真实的鼓声，同时混合各种平行效果，以及环境和粉碎麦克风来塑造声音，以适应不同的表演风格。
As the drummer for Kokoroko, Oscar Jerome and Julia Biel, Ayo Salawu describes his drumming style as a fusion of the various genres he was exposed to from growing up and performing in so many different parts of the world. From playing along to gospel music on pots and pans, then moving to Nigeria and being exposed to genres such as afrobeat and reggae, and finally moving to the uk and coming across genres such as hiphop, funk and jazz. He especially takes influence from bands/artists such as Earth Wind and Fire, Kool and The Gang, and Michael Jackson.
Recorded at the world-renowned Livingston Studios, the pack attempts to capture what Ayo considers his signature playing style, and includes performances in the worlds of jungle, hip-hop, funk and afrobeat. In terms of recording ethos we tried to capture a dry and true-to-life drum sound whilst blending in a variety of parallel effects sends, as well as ambient and crush mics to shape the sound to suit the different performance styles.
