Unique Fusion: KO KO MO’s Captivating 70s-Inspired Modern Twist

A fox holding a vinyl cd in a shop. There is a sign reading up and coming bands in the background and headings reading metal and rock in the foreground.

As always with my Tuesday up-and-coming bands posts , I focus on bands with under 500,000 monthly streams on Spotify, hopefully you discover new music along with me on this journey. I’ll be adding 3 songs from these weekly posts to my own Spotify Playlist.

Background Information

Hailing from Nantes, France, this dynamic duo, Warren Mouton and Kevin Grosmolar, form a two-headed hydra (as they like to call themselves). Brace yourself for a high-energy musical journey filled with unexpected twists and turns! Trying to categorize their sound is like trying to catch a slippery fish – it’s a unique blend of electro-hard rock and indie but with a special touch.

KO KO MO – Last Night a D.J Saved My Life (All rights are retained by KO KO MO)

What sets this band apart is their ability to create a truly distinctive sound. While there may be other bands in a similar vein, none quite capture the essence of their music. Since their 2014 EP, “Stole My Soul,” they have been making waves in the French music scene. Drawing inspiration from the 70s and infusing it with a modern twist, their music is a captivating fusion of old and new. Their cover of “Last Night a DJ Saved My Life” which has 3.6 million streams has propelled them to new heights of popularity. Get ready to be blown away by this one-of-a-kind musical experience!

    Love their energy reminds me of The Blue Stones’ early work. But this is different in many ways. Great music for working out!
