Millennium latino This vinyl reissue—curated by LebaneseAn Acid Jazz album with a good dash of Funk, produced in large part by Mark Brydon of later Moloko fame. Opening up nicely with the rolling steppy Sleepwalk and continuing into the smooth, vocal Millennium, the relaxed tone is set. Real Gone Turn It One is one of the album's highlights, another downtempo, broken beat with a few precious stabs of synth strings and background vocals.
