World Funk Orchestra Kicks Off 2025 with Scintillating New Single "Madding Crowd"
New York, New York - Feb 12, 2025 - World Funk Orchestra (WFO) is back to heat up the start of 2025 with their vibrant new single, Madding Crowd . A masterful blend of Afrobeats, breezy Calypso, and soulful Reggae, this track offers an instant tropical escape-just the remedy for the winter blues.
The 8th single and 11th release from WFO's prolific songwriter Mitchell Stuart, Madding Crowd captures the universal desire to escape the grind of urban life. With its hypnotic rhythms, sunny steel drums, and joyous melodies, the song whisks listeners off to an Afrobeats paradise where the sunsets blaze, the sand sparkles, and the dance floor beckons.
Anchored by infectious bass and percussion from Stuart and cofounder Mike Ratti, the track delivers a rich tapestry of tropical textures with playful marimbas, lyrical penny whistles, and the unmistakable warmth of Caribbean flair. Complementing the lush instrumentation are the soulful harmonies of WFO members Josh Samson, Rebecca McCartney, Matthew Samson, Ethan Famodu, and Bongiwe Mnngomezulu, whose voices evoke the golden age of Motown with a twist of Jamaican rum.
Produced by the dynamic duo of Stuart and Ratti-affectionately called "the M&M's"- Madding Crowd was recorded across two continents: Cape Town, South Africa, with longtime collaborator Andrew Rawbone-Viljoen, and Manhattan, New York. The result is a track that feels both global and timeless, perfect for multi-genre playlists and fans of world music.
As a bonus, WFO continues their beloved tradition with the release of Valentine's Day , a musical greeting card serving as the perfect B-side companion to Madding Crowd . Whether you're grooving on the dance floor or celebrating a romantic holiday, these tracks promise to deliver pure joy to fans everywhere.
Madding Crowd is now streaming on all major platforms. For more information about the records visit https://vyd.co/MaddingCrowd
