How late do U have 2 B B 4 U R Absent? That's the question when it comes to MICO WAVE. I still remember him for his 1987 album Cooking From The Inside Out, which was a true Funk masterpiece. Now he's back with Let's Talk Dirty. First single from his upcoming album 'Public, Private & Personal' :

And what about DAX - I love Chocolate Girls ? Great Song, great Video, I love it soo much ....

the NEON ROMEOZ have released their full first longplayer: THE NEON PHENOMENON, it's a Purple Bomb par excellence .... Dont miss that one!!!!!!!!!!

Other fine albums worth checking out:

SY SMITH / Fast And Curious

ISHAN COOPER / MANNEQUIN MOONWALK

KINNY / Cant Kill A Dame With A Soul

CANDILAND/ Rumble In The Playground

NEW TRINITY REVOLUTION / 9

Wow thanks for posting updates on these artists. I had Neon Romeoz EP when it came out a few years ago. It seems this new album has a few tracks form the EP. It sounds great. Straight out of the 80s. Where are they from??

I definitely want to check out the new Mico Wave. I hope it sounds like his old stuff.

You are right, The Neon Phenomenon contains the songs from their 2008 debut EP plus 5 new tracks. I believe they are from Sweden but I am not quite sure. Maybe, somenone in here who knows better can confirm ...

I think, Mico Wave's Let's Talk Dirty single, from the hopefully soon to be relases Public, Privat & Personal Album, has some very strong The Time/Original 7(6)ven influence. This leaves me hoping for an all over good longplayer .

Hope some other people than just you & me will discover that these guys defenitely have the Funk, go out, spread the word and support them ....

I downloaded the Neon Romeoz EP a few years ago and just got the other tracks form the new album and it's good funky stuff.

Playin' On My Own sounds like it could be from an Andre Cymone album

Cry Baby sounds like a Cameo track

Moher To All Mothers has a strong Bootsy ballad vibe. It's a future funk ballad.

Throughout you'll be reminded of the Time and 1981-1983 era Prince.

The sound is pure retro 1980's, and thats all good with me.

It sounds like it could be a long lost Funk album from 1984.

Really love it.

Approved! To be described in one word: Neosoulpsychofunkadelica!

Andre Cymone meets Morris, Prince, Bootsy ... Hard to name any favorits on here, the whole album is a blast, love it, too! Even the cover artwork is:

Brand new song "Temptress" performed live for the first time!
