Takuya Kuroda is a Japanese trumpeter and producer whose creative profile is the closest thing to a 21st century Dizzy Gillespie. Kobe's work is rooted in jazz, but his silky and distinguished formula has always been characterized by combining soul, funk and Afrobeat in the same discourse.
Forged in the New York scene, he has collaborated with José James, Akoya Afrobeat and Badder (DJ Premier's band) and has recorded with Concord and Blue Note. He lands at the Piñata Music Series to present his latest album, Fly Moon Die Soon (2020) which, in his own words, deals with "the paradox between the greatness of nature and the beautiful obscenity of the human being." An album of telluric beauty, almost inexplicable.
