"The Funktion" welcomes us into Strip Steve's retro-styled house party, set in a futuristic dystopian world. With only drums and toms, the gimmick is reminiscent of the colder Strip Steve record Calcium, yet it always remains funky. Putting it in Strip Steve's words: "If Prince free-styled on a Linn Drum in a rave in 2025, this is what it would sound like." "The Other Side of Time" is colder house or warmer techno, either way you might see it. The B-side features a raw tool and "I Bump My Head : (" is a slightly deeper cut on the record, in the spirit of Moodyman, MCDE, and Soundstream.
