About this item

Genre bending 12" by UK trio of Simon Akers, Jason Brown & Jacqueline Foster some 30 odd years ago. Originally came out on a very limited white label, mixing house & street soul influences. One of the greatest UK white labels of all time. Relegated to obscurity until now, this four track EP boasts the downtempo hit ‘Summertime’ alongside three electronic bangers.

The dubbed out stabs of ‘Jennifer’ on the A2 and two never before heard versions of ‘Let’s Climb’. Feel the festival ready power of the ‘Come To Me Mix’ and lose yourself to the hypnotic squelch of the ‘Glad You Made It Dub’, ready for sweaty summer nights.

In the late eighties, Simon Akers and Jason Brown began producing in a quaint home studio. Later collaborating with likeminded talents through the early nineties. Terrestrial Funk has worked with the group to transfer all their old digital audio tapes and bring you a series of fresh music yet to see the light of day. Jacqueline Foster aka Jacquoda brought her stunning voice to the project on this massive single showcasing vocals that shine brighter than the summer sun. Grab your copy today!

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: One of those records that's not gonna truly make sense until it's a scorching day, this is firing outta the speaker stacks, and there's a sense of relaxed jubilation in the air. A mid afternoon sound system / festival / carnival BANGER that boasts both street soul and dubby house stylings. Seriously, I can almost feel the sweat dripping down by back, arms tingling with goosebumps. It's got a really Manchester flavour to it although I'm not quite sure where they originate from.
