die frage ist sicher nur rhetorisch: does anybody wanna funk? fragt paulo mendonca, und wer den schweden mit portugiesischer herkunft kennt, weiß: sein funk funktioniert! nach hunderttausenden verkauften tonträgern und tourneen mit größen wie tina turner gibts ein wiederhören mit dem großen funk-gitarristen.
18 jahre lang veröffentlichte paulo keine alben mehr, er trat zwar noch live auf, widmete sich aber sonst ganz seinem verlag in london. doch dann juckte es ihn wieder in den fingern. er begann, songs für ein neues album zu schreiben und aufzunehmen. das resultat ist ein feuerwerk aus funk und rock, handgemacht und sehr groovy.
der vinyl-lp liegt ein download-code für das gesamte album bei.

we decided to put together a long player to highlight the talents of our man in buenos aires. the construction of *float* reveals an astonishing wealth of musical ideas, brazen touches of new wave and icy modern disco sounds are evident throughout. low slung basses are also a theme that runs right through *float* whether it is the opening song *a place* which has a monster electronic bottom end or *from out there* which sits firmly on the punk funk dinner table, bass lines are clearly important to fernando.

boris bunnik goes under many aliases. numerous smaller projects, some huge faceless projects but mostly known and well respected for his conforce project. as versalife he found his way to the clone familia for his night time activities project, and around this same period we just managed to pull out the best suitable tracks for frustrated funk. versalife is electro-techno in its purest form. deep and intense analog rhythms with crisp percussion patterns slightly touching the more experimental side of things. this ep is a nice balanced mixture of industrial drone material to more classic sounding electro with versalifes own signature strength. highly recommended as always!
