Jabdah (Picture Disc)
[ Vinyl ]

Ah, Koto's classic album "Jabdah" gets the picture disc treatment, and boy oh boy, does it bring back memories of neon leggings and hairspray galore. This Italian group really knew how to blend techno beats with catchy melodies, creating a sound that was both futuristic and strangely nostalgic. The title track "Jabdah" is an absolute banger, with its infectious synth hooks and relentless drum machine driving the song forward like a DeLorean at 88 miles per hour. It's impossible not to dance to this track, whether you're in the club or just grooving in your bedroom. But it's not all high-energy beats on this album. Tracks like "Chinese Revenge" and "Visitor" showcase Koto's softer side, with dreamy synths and ethereal vocals that transport you to another dimension. It's like floating through a pastel-coloured dreamscape while sipping on a neon cocktail. The picture disc format adds an extra layer of nostalgia to the listening experience, as you watch the hypnotic patterns spin round and round on your turntable. It's like a psychedelic trip without the dodgy mushrooms. Overall, "Jabdah" is a delightful blast from the past that will have you dusting off your old leg warmers and cranking up the volume. Koto may have been ahead of their time, but their music is timeless. So go ahead, give this album a spin and let the good vibes wash over you like a wave of 80s nostalgia.
