Rap

Modjo is a Rap act. Their sound grew out of Benjamin Diamond, Louis La Roche, David Bowie, Aerosmith and The Police. Those roots explain a lot about how Modjo arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Cassius, Room 5, Daft Punk, Michael Gray and Junior Jack, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Kygo, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 35 connections around Modjo, reaching back through Benjamin Diamond and forward to Kygo.
