The O7 brought me back to that '84 sound, something P hasn't done since PR...

Now, you may say 'so what,' it ain't 1984! But the sound is what I still crave. Who knew it would take a P offshoot to take me there. Well you know what? P ain't done it to me since! Yet these cats are the ones who I shoulda known woulda. And they did! The last 40 secs of #Trendin is what I've yearned from P since. And he hasn't delivered.

Monte Moir - MONTE MOIR - gave it to me in seven seconds.

Where's it been, P?

Where's it been?!

And that sultry groove of Role Play was that icin' on da cake.

P betta get back in dat studio and funk me up sumpin' special. 'Cause I'm like Billy playin' these cats as headliners.

YOUNT.

Dear Lord, lol 1984 was 27 years ago .If its been that long for you then you should have stopped following Prince ages ago. Your princey is gone. Be happy that the O7 is around to do it for you.

I'm feelin' ya. The broader Prince fanbase, the ones who will go to Prince concerts but have no interest in his more, ahem, 'creative' directions would eat an album like this up from him. But in the meantime, congratulaions, to the O7 for bringing it high and tight.

Co-Sign I think some people forgot about a little cd called Sign Of The Times. I love the new Time CD but come the fuck on. P is bested himself about 5 times since 1984.

I haven't eaten macaroni and cheese since 1984 cause it wasn't cheesy enough. Then Mrs.Stouffers come with this microwaveable goodness and I'm like yo' mom what the fuck!!! It's been 27 years since i had mac and cheese like this! You need to get back in the kitchen and come out with some of that 1984 cheesy shit that I love. Come on now.

When eye go 2 a Prince concert or related event it's all heart up in the house but when eye log onto this site and the miasma of bitchiness is completely overwhelming!

This new album has nothing to do with 1984. MPLSound is closer to that vintage sound so this comment is the dumbest one I have seen here

If you crave the 80's Minnie sound then you should be extremely satisfied with Condensate. Sounds like it was written in 1984, nostalgia is a motherfucker.

Welcome to your opinion of course...but.....you mean that weak tinny record? Clean your ears out son. No bottom on that thing. No punch at all. I was HOPING to hear the sound I came to love back in the day but got a pale imitation. 07 brought the sound and added contemporary production values (Prince has never been a big production guy - and that's not a knock). IMO of course.

Exactly. That wasn't even close to the REAL Minneapolis Sound. No bottom, no real feel. It was a joke, and Prince obviously doesn't think but so much of his fans to think it was automatically gonna be eaten up because it used Linn drum samples. That was the only ingredient present from the real Minny Sound, and it was poorly done at that.
