From 1980 this Brit-Funk classic from Atmosfear encapsulated the sound emerging from indie studios in the UK at the time – that unmistakable collision of funk, jazz and boogie that looked to the USA for inspiration but could only have come from these shores. The bristling ‘Free Tonight’ fuses fusion with an underground dance vibe, the jazzier ‘Duende’ is pure jazz funk while ‘Creator’s Dream’ is a subtle boogie effort that feels around for different directions to move in. The pacey jazz dance ‘Interplay’ goes into disco territory while ‘Return Of LB’ is a superb percussion heavy stop-start funker. The LP version is a straight duplicate of the original album while the CD is extended to include their classic ‘Dancing In Outer Space’, the sparkling, soaring ‘Motivation’, the wonderful vibes heavy ‘Extract’ and the cavernous, experimental ‘Alternative II’.
