Aloe Island Posse - Midnight Selects

Sleepless Tapes is a purveyor of Future Funk for the royal court since 1961, or something like that, you know...

Let's not get carried away here. This album consists of pure love and rhythm. Nothing can be written or said that would surpass a simple but active listening.

Be you on the beach, inhaling barbecue fumes or completely broke and depressed (it happens more often than you think), this music will satisfy your every need. Just listen, everything will be okay.

Live long, and prosper.

Desired - Desired

Future Funk is life, Future Funk is love !

Embark on a journey to the 80s, 90s with Desired, a russian producer who really managed to capture the essence of this groovy musical genre.

Just by listening, you will be transported to another time. A better time ? Possibly, for many things, maybe not for other things. But we'll focus on the good for now.

Also, take a listen to his other productions, you'll probably end up just as addicted as I am now.

Just put on your red shoes and dance !

Aloe Island Posse - Good Night Aloe Island

This album embodies pretty nicely the conception I have of Future Funk. Old-school kitsch synths like a sunset seen by the milkshake bar by the sea, disco samples, rhythms that give one the urge both to dance and to sweep the floor all at once, but most of all a special 80s, 90s atmosphere given by the scratchy lo-fi sound, the short keytar riffs and the unavoidable image of an era lost and idealised at the same time...

But don't worry, by the time we get to 2080, we'll get to live the eighties of the future ! And yes of course we'll still be there, what's that for a question ?

If you crave more Future Funk as I do, go and take a listen to what they got at Sleepless Tapes, you won't be disappointed.
