Reviews

DEEPGROOVETECHNICIAN Apr 4, 2023
Edited one year ago
Hands down must have EP for any funky soulful disco music lover (you know who you are), and there is so much in these tracks that provides the foundations of many dancefloor grooves/styles that were to follow and are still to come. Dancin' & Prancin' and 'Jingo' are absolute disco classics through and through but 'Thousand Finger Man' is a fantastic vision of the future, proto-soulful house from 1979.

Candido retains plenty of his Cuban roots while heading full throttle to the discos, drumming most of the competition off the dance floor.
