Martin Dumas Jr ‎– Attitude, Belief & Determination

There’s no doubt that crate-digger, record collector and renowned Discogs seller Zafsmusic knows more than most about the world of private press vinyl releases. This 12″, originally pressed up in super-limited quantities by its’ creator, Martin L Dumas Jnr sometime around the turn of the ’80s, has long been a must-have for collectors with several thousand dollars to spare. The title track is particularly wonderful – a warm, breezy, loose and fluid chunk of boogie-soul that Zaf has slightly tweaked to suit the needs of modern dancefloors. Flipside “Nonstop To The Top” has a more jazz-funk feel, with intergalactic synths complimenting Dumas Jr’s sweet vocal and conscious lyrics.
