Soul, funk THE BORDER SESSIONS
LATE NIGHT DREAM Presents Factory Sealed For Your Protection EP5 by Ethel Lindsey 320kbit/s

After the magnum french adventure we went through with my homies from « the french connection » and eventually my fourth episode of FSFYP,
I’m back now with the best of Soul/Funk, Aor from hey days throwing even some rarities coming from the artist’s vaults and I included it in the tracklist.
This Fifth episode brings you some of the best funk and AOR ballads for our upcoming summer days.
While previous episode were more focused on AOR somehow, this one’s contains a few more boogies and grooves than before.
Some cuts really shows how Disco redefined musicians’s willingness to recapture the true authentic spririt of Funk Music after that 70’s journey, focusing on hard grooves and more complex rhythm than obvious 4 on the floors with the hit hat which was a disco trademark.
We’re still navigating between 1978 and the mid eighties, so you’ll feel the change of direction in some productions as it became more minimalistic along the way.
I didn’t resist adding some epic or sweet tracks coming from Hall & Oates, and Stephen Bishop.
They’re here in this collection to show a true bridge between Soft Rock/Aor and Soul in general.
Disco was in fact a trendy color added to these tracks.
You’ll also hear an alternate version from The Jacksons, which contains a unrealeased vocal bridge from Michael Jackson for the first time in 39 years.
I really hope you’ll enjoy this selection as much as i had a ball making it really ecclectic.
This time Rick James will not ask you to smoke or join his Pfunk party, instead he will invite you to celebrate Summer, and Dan hartman will also celebrate Summer’s boogie as well.
Let’s unseal a musical and colored summer on LND !
