Strut proudly reintroduces a classic from the Topomic catalogue, Ice"s "Each Man Makes His Destiny", officially available on vinyl for the first time. After relocating from the United States to Paris, Ice began performing regularly in the city"s Barbès district, a vibrant area with a large North African immigrant community. The band"s heavy Afro-funk sound caught the attention of producer Pierre Jaubert, leading them to become the resident session musicians at his independent Parisound studio. Immersed in the local influences, Ice began integrating African-inspired chants, textures, and rhythms into their distinct funk style.In 1973, the group recorded their debut album, "Each Man Makes His Destiny", a psychedelic funk exploration that hinted at the evolving sound that would later define them as the Lafayette Afro-Rock Band and, eventually, Ice once more.
