Muscular’s sound is electronic music with grooves of Funk, harmony of Soul, synthesizer sounds from the future including deep basses, vocoded singing and sparkling arpeggios stirred with organic instruments such as pianos, guitars, horns and percussion.
The music of Muscular is founded on Herbie Hancock’s jazz-funk headhunting, Parliament-Funkadelics vision through star-shaped-sunglasses, Prince’s masterful musicology and today’s super groups Franc Moody, Vulfpeck and Cory Henry & Funk Apostles.
The brains behind this Muscular project is Finnish keyboard player and pianist Ilmari Aitoaho (b.1988). Currently he is also part of funk-rock group East Funk Attack, Motown inspired soul band Punomo and indie-rock cult Yournalist. Ilmari has surrounded himself with super talented musicians (and good friends) who give their own brilliant add to this Muscular tissue.
