Codebreaker OK, their album "What Is This Earth Love?" (2005) BUMPED. If you liked old sophisti-funk acts like Mtume, Skyy, Shalamar, Midnight Star, Zapp & Roger and electro like Cybotron, Egyptian Lover, etc., then this album is right up your alley. Listen to a song sample of their track "Caller". Codebreaker sound like what would’ve happened had electro *stayed* electro and never evolved into contemporary r&b and hip-hop. You can download more tracks from Codebreaker here | |

I dont know who the fuck sing that song but I want it. But the melody is so close to that song. Straight Jacket Funk Affair
Album plays and love for vinyl records. | |

My favourite to this day : New Skool Science by Jedi Knights , Global Communication at their best, though you should check them out as well.
The real oldskool electro, made in 1995.... may the funk be with you | |

For me, the classic is always P-Funk/Funkadelic. Their "Electric Spanking of War Babies" is one of my favorites! | |
