CD version of this crazy but amazing 80's private press project... Tip!!
A lo-fi but breezy outsider funk, made with repetitive cheap-sounding keyboards loops and tones (the kind being currently exploited by Dam-Funk, Ariel Pink, and James Pants), strange metallic tropical guitar tones that sound more like steel drums and flute sounds than actual guitar, and sly, laid-back vocals and catchy, infectiously naive grooves that work their way into our heads and never let go. The title track was included on the James Pants Disco mix CD. ( Blunt's skewed Caribbean inflected songs would obviously be simpatico with James Pants' more recent tropical themed output). See here for a nice interview with the artist! http://martynpepperell.tumblr.com/post/4021691277/the-doug-hream-blunt-interview
