Reissue of this super-rare space funk album from 1983, one of the holy grails of the Cosmic scene.

Extremely expensive and hard-to-find in the original, this LP was created by legendary French producers Jean-Pierre Massiera and Bernard Torelli (listed here as Areisam and Bernie) and released on French label Savoir Faire. It is a superb example of the duo’s innovative electronic disco madness, always pushing boundaries while remaining supremely funky. Stand-out tracks are the Italo classic ‘Challenger’ - heady synths, tough bass and astronaut vocals combine in a strange space odyssey; ‘Cruisin’, a superb electro-boogie style cut with a hypnotic driving bassline, and the fantastic ‘On The Border’, a tight funky percussive workout whipped by wild space-rock guitars.
