◇ image via WikipediaKano
Kano is a Rhythm and blues and UK garage act. Their sound grew out of Kate Nash, Skrapz, Jammer, Craig David and Dawn Penn. Those roots explain a lot about how Kano arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Ghetts, Lethal Bizzle, Giggs, Stormzy and AJ Tracey, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Bashy, Paul Epworth, Rofo, Tag Team and Felix da Housecat, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 42 connections around Kano, reaching back through Kate Nash and forward to Bashy.
