New Cool Collective, the eclectic jazz ensemble hailing from the Netherlands, has been renowned for its vivacious melding of jazz with vibrant grooves since its formation in 1993. Conceived by saxophonist Benjamin Herman, the collective quickly gained a reputation for their inventive and energetic performances. The band, consisting of an eight-piece core, often expands with collaborating artists, and it is this flexible approach that allows them to explore a rich tapestry of Afrobeat, Latin, soul, dance, and boogaloo influences.

Throughout their illustrious career, New Cool Collective has been prolific in both the studio and on stage. Among their more recent contributions to their extensive discography, records like 'Opus 127' and 'Dansé Dansé' exemplify their consistent evolution in sound and stylistic nuance. Loyal fans and new listeners alike have been treated to a sonic cornucopia with the 'YUNIKōN' releases, including a deluxe edition that delivers even more of the band's infectious energy. 'Electric Monkey Sessions 2' and 'XXV' celebrate their prowess and versatility marking significant milestones in their career, ensuring that with New Cool Collective, listeners are always part of a fresh, compelling musical journey.
