Rubberband

A lost 1985 session finally unearthed. Miles trades modal jazz for neon-drenched funk, heavy synths, and street-ready grooves that define his mid-80s transition.

Posthumous time capsule

Thick synth bass and street-corner funk collide, wrapping you in the neon glow of a lost eighties night.

Energetic+4.0σ

This record pivots sharply from the artist's usual brooding intensity into a highly energetic, neon-lit sprint that captures the relentless, kinetic pulse of mid-eighties street funk.
