If ‘You Can’t Have My Love’ wasn’t ridiculous enough in its ’80s electro funk ways, the title track from Space Dimension Controller’s new album is really going to teach you all about intergalactic funk.
‘Welcome to Mikrosector-50’ takes its cue from ‘Planet Rock’ era, electro-funk with Hamill channelling the vocals of the era in a lovingly tongue-in-cheek way. From its sci-fi intro to its slow building chopper synth to the subtle treated guitar in the background to its drum machine beats, everything about this track says ’80s nostalgic fun. Can’t wait to hear the album.
Welcome to Mikrosektor-50 is out on R&S Records on March 4th. Pre-order.
