SPACING OUT by THE INVADERS

Rough n’ wild funk jam loaded with insane psychedelic effects – all the way from sunny Bermuda!

Two instrumental funk masterpieces taken from the mega rare LP by The Invaders, now reissued in collaboration with Now-Again Records

=================================

‘Spacing Out’ is an instrumental funk masterpiece only ever issued in Bermuda at the turn of 1970, taken from an exceedingly rare album sought out by rock, funk, soul and hip hop sample fiends – and bootlegged – for decades.

It lays out the band’s funk bonafides: a relentlessly tight conga-filled groove, the punchy wall of intertwined horn leads, and raucous unintelligible background vocals adding extra mystique. Above all was the exaggerated deployment of reverb and echo (a decision most of the group’s members credit to recording engineer Ian Marshall) which ricocheted off and reanimated every lick as an otherworldly transmission, infusing a vibe both earthy and interstellar.

On the flip we find ‘Latin Lips’ a heavy funk cut with a jazzier vibe, also taken from the mega rare LP by The Invaders.
