Limited double vinyl LP pressing in gatefold jacket. A continuation of his kaleidoscopic sun-dappled cosmic-disco, Neon Leon was the much-loved CD-only album by Sorcerer (Californian Dan Judd, one half of Windsurf with Hatchback). A perfectly formed suite of ten tracks featuring soft guitars, subtle synths and lightly grooving percussion, Neon Leon magically evokes that elusive summer feeling throughout. The guitar-driven Algorhythm serves as the album opener, blasting bold, sun-drenched jazz chords atop bright synths and groove-based drum programming. Ride The Serpent and Distort Yourself are guided by a more sultry, slo-mo disco impulse whilst the staggering Chemise and strident Face It merge 80s West Coast production sheen with Sorcerer's trademark laid back, gentle disco. Raydio's undeniable head-nod groove adds a rare vocal to the proceedings, joyously combining with the bubbling cosmic funk. Algorhythm, Dayglow, Chemise, Ride the Serpent, Rush 2 Freeze, Shaolin Style, Raydio (Play It), Jump Rope, Distort Yourself, El Condor
