Artist description Is it Punk Rock? Is it Reggae? Or maybe funk? You may find it hard to decide. Motalio is a band with its own style. It does not particularly seek to fit into any predetermined genre, but would rather develop a truly original, truly personal style that may or may not fit into certain categories. But it is not a lifeless mix that is so varied as to lose a listener. Motalio's smooth bass grooves and steady rhythms can go anywhere from jazzy hip-hop, to reggae, to driving punk rock all in a seamless, laid back "whatever" atmosphere, and without losing any originality. No matter what show Motalio plays, it's good times.
