With this new release Galaxy 2 Galaxy stole my heart. Their first album already was a classic, I don't have it on vinyl yet though (which is a big shame), so I was very happy when I heard this one was coming.

Never ever had I heard electronic music loaded with this much funk, soul and jazz. I am a big UR fan myself, but I must say; I recommend this one to everyone who loves black music. The band shows a great vision on electronic music and music in general.

Major respect for the UR guys,keep up the good work!

This is an incredible album from UR showcasing some of the finest releases from Galaxy 2 Galaxy, UR's band. Some of the tracks such as Nation 2 Nation and Body and Soul are from early releases but then there are new tracks such as Momma's Basement which is a great downtempo jazz track but the real highlight for me is Afro's, Arps and Minimoogs. This song is amazing and has shot right up there into my favourite UR tracks ever. Does exactly what it says on the tin. A track with real funk and soul that for me is a dancefloor bomb. But IMO the whole album is great.

Don't be shy you know you want one!!!
