Alan Hawkshaw and Brian Bennett, the marvellous pair from KPM that gave us the killer funk "The Name of the Game". Lots of wild material ! Tough breaks provided by Brian Bennett, loud bass lines and crazey clavinet ! Very funky and very useful if you are after dope LOOPs : "Mon amour" is a smooth funk, "Oddball" is hard funk electro with break, "Daytripper" is a fat funk number that could make a house hit, "Mile High Swinger" has a pure Hanged Man sound, while "Auto Pilot" has a pulsating groove with electric piano and synthesizer. Check "Driving Force" and "Pacesetter" too for electroid prog funk. Last but not least, "Funky Chicken" has funky synths & loops. And Alan Hawkshaw, Mister 'Mohawks' himself, has to be heard on wah wah clavinet... Terrific !
