from the 12” single, MCA records, 1979Sampled by hip-hoppers and house-heads alike, this delicious jam contains one of best-known and most addictive melodies in dance music history; a winning combination of tight jazzy drumming, sexy saxophones, and a slinky bassline so low it could win a roller-skating limbo competition hands down. The accents are nice too, monosynths and clacking wooden blocks, making the whole affair feel like an afterparty on the moon. There is a reggae-inspired bridge/breakdown towards the beginning of the track which is just sublime, indicating the number of varying influences which seasoned the minds of Atmosfear. Founding-member and guitarist Andy Sojka co-produced a number of spacier dance tracks in the late-70s and early 80s, but Atmosfear (who went on to make boogie records after this) never sounded as innovative again as they do here.
