2024 restock. The story about the lost recordings of
Ghia
continues: Following "At The Hilton" single, The Outer Edge present
Curaçao Blue
, the band's first full-length album. And it is simply mind-blowing, to say the least! The LP features ten unreleased tracks in a similar Balearic vein as featured on the single. Incredibly, it was only just a few months ago that these tracks were rediscovered on some old tapes by band members
Lutz Boberg
and
Frank Simon
. Could anyone imagine that two physics students from a small German town could create such beautiful, thrilling music in their home studio? Although the technical aspects in the creation of the band's earliest tracks may have been straightforward, the outcome is high-quality, creative, modern jazz-funk, with one step in the electro-funk genre due to the use of a drum machine and synthesizer basslines. The album features mostly 4-track recordings, based mainly on the musicians' weapons of choice: a DX21 keyboard (later updated to the legendary DX7) and a guitar. Many things had to be done live in just one take, though the artists were unafraid of using overdubbing techniques to weave their instrumental journeys. The DIY aesthetics just add more beauty and uniqueness to the songs and compositions, and the result is an extremely harmonic work of undeniable musicality. Ghia delivers Balearic jazz-funk at its finest. Though the music was recorded in Germany, Ghia had a true relationship with the Balearic region and effortlessly applied the vibes to their compositions. Previously unissued full-length album. Fully licensed. Recorded between 1985-1988. Includes 30x30 cm insert.
