Opening track…. — YEAH MAN. Progressive stylez synth with electro reverberance backing. The drag (poplock) tempo on this conjures up images of the 1980s The Electric Boogaloos crew. 8:35 mark — AH MAN!!!!!!!!! Cosmic funk keys and breaks; notice the synthesized saxophone riff. 14:45 — A BEAUT. Female croon, funky robot (dance) cadence \\0// . 21:00 — MINT MAN MINT. Vibrato Moog, bass DENSITY.

27:00 — All INNIT!!!!!!!!! Male croon, WARPING buttons, harmonica lick 0–0. 29:15 — CLASSIC HOUSE PIANO. 32:40 — HAAAAA YES \\0// \\0///!!!!!!!!!! Rapid-fire vibrato STRIKES with cosmic radar accompaniment.

39:00 — SHOOTING STAR chords. 45:40 — FESTIVE galactic FUNK scattered with instrumental bits. Deffo takes you off this chaotic planet. 52:20 — And order ours with extra (synth) cascades please. 55:50 — Coda….Lovely cooldown here; easy elevation.

  • OVERVIEW — This is one of the easiest listening vibez I’ve heard in a bit. The 110 bpm tempo is the draw, but the sound is the goodz. The Moog Minimoog Model D and ARP 2600 is prominent. There’s nothing emotional or moody, these are instrumental tracks with cosmic (travel) feelz. If you have an appreciation for old skool house with that “New Wave” class, this voyage conjures up those memories. Picture 1980s CBGB in New York or Blitz Club in London.
