Brian Bennett – Voyage (A Journey Into Discoid Funk)

I went up my mum and dad’s loft 2 or 3 years ago and ended up raiding my dad’s vinyl collection. Most were old fillers but this absolute gem was amongst them in amazing condition. Great record.

This one blew my mind. So glad I have it. Amazing quality.

I bought this based on the cover art, and disco funk sounds like my jam. I did not expect it to be this good. It sounds like the score to a futuristic 80’s John Carpenter knock off, and I mean that in the best way possible. The music transports you to a fully fleshed out world, on a planet that is far from here but not totally unfamiliar.
The gatefold packaging is gorgeously rendered in crisp detail, and the original art is beautiful. The record is flat and dead quiet and the translucent blue and black mixture looks amazing.
Real Gone is putting out some of the finest represses out there, and their once a year sale is a great opportunity to check out some unfamiliar music. That was the whole reason a lot of us got into to this hobby, back before it was cost prohibitive to explore.

heyyy you can write me if you're into this one :)

This is a fantastic album !!!!! The pressing is amazing feel like I'm on a spaceship truly a jazz funk fusion masterpiece

The 2021 CD reissue is a real treat. It's fascinating to hear early working versions of these evocative tracks. This was essentially the point of sale for me, but I also would have liked to have owned crisp digital versions of the original cuts remastered directly from the original studio master tapes. Unfortunately, what sounds like surface noise suggests that CD 1 is in fact remastered from a vinyl rip. A shame, but not the end of the world. Cracking release otherwise :)

Excellent sound. Punchy synths, pristine clear cut. A truly superb pressing.

Nice job here from RGR; completely noise free and nicely mastered. Great listen at a low price.

We need more space funk in our world...the synths here are godly! Absolutely fantastic album & high quality pressing!
