Cloud One

The studio-bound disco unit Cloud One produced its debut in 1976 using the spectacular “Atmosphere Strut,” a drifting, blissed-out nugget of underground disco that featured a repeated female vocal refrain of “We’re gonna fly/Take flight away.” Moreover, what produced the song stick out from the rest released at that time was the crazy synthesizer range from maker and arranger Patrick Adams, who — much like dozens of additional short-lived disco functions shamelessly chucked into obscurity — helmed the group. The nine-minute solitary was also the inaugural launch on P&P, the to begin several small brands operate by Adams and partner Peter Dark brown. Many Cloud One singles adopted throughout the past due ’70s on P&P-affiliated brands, such as for example Queen Constance, Golden Flamingo, Heavenly Celebrity, and Audio of NY. The Atmosphere Strut LP, released in 1976, put together a number of the group’s 12″ materials (the LP included a seven-minute edit from the dizzying “Disco Juice,” another Adams traditional). Funky Disco Paths of Cloud One, an EP, was released in 1978. Another LP, called Content Music, made an appearance in 1979. Another Cloud One jewel that’s worth talking about is definitely “Patti Duke,” a spacy quantity filled with bizarro Moog manipulations and clusters of hands percussion that, when increased, would probably appear to be among the most popular go-go monitors ever recorded. Fortunately, Cloud One’s documented functions haven’t been as well difficult to come across. The Unidisc label released Atmosphere Strut on Compact disc in 1996, while M.We.L. Multimedia released THE VERY BEST of Cloud One 2 yrs afterwards. The U.K.-structured Counterpoint label in addition has provided a significant service for all those attempting to locate songs released by P&P and its own offshoots; in 1997, the Disco Juice compilation premiered another volume implemented in 2002. Four Cloud One music were included between your two discs.
