‘Diamonds’ combines that nice 80s electro sound with funk and lots disco cheese to great effect, with Janet Jackson providing the vocals. Its a really great track, which marked Alpert’s return and got to nr one i think, i was. Very catchy at times and the Janet Jackson manages to go from from cheesey pop to funky street cred boppin’.

On the other hand Rotation is a dreamy rolling gem, pulsing like my flex when i sleep. Then Herb’s trumpet is used to maximum effect. It makes me feel so sleazy, yet so pure.

Bicep dudes. I just want to let you know you’ve been on one hell of a roll recently. Some awesome tunes that have gone straight to my heart. Particularly like the Optimo Espacia Shortwave set one, the King of Kong, and the Jazzy Dee. Sublime, and thank you.
thanks for the kind words, love the layout on your site
