Life On Mars (New LP)

Limited edition of 1500 individually numbered copies on translucent blue coloured 180-gram audiophile vinyl. Life On Mars is the 1976 debut album by the American R&B/jazz fusion singer, arranger, musician, composer and conductor Dexter Wansel. The album is considered to be a “”space-funk”” classic, inspired by David Bowie’s “”Life On Mars?””. The album inspired other artists and Wansel’s “”Theme From The Planets”” drum beat intro is hailed as being one of the first foundation beats of hip-hop. His sampled music has been used by Kanye West, Lil Wayne, Drake, Rick Ross, J. Cole, Wiz Khalifa, and Ice Cube amongst others.
