about

Originally released as a 12” single in 1983, ‘Esmerelda / Slide Over (To The Real Slide)’ is the sole release from New York-based production duo Brooklyn Bunch.

On the A-side, squelchy p-funk synths and Oberheim DX drum loops set the scene for a soulful tribute to Civil Rights Attorney Esmeralda Simmons. Over on the flip, the Brooklyn Bunch teams up with songwriters Bill Easely and Henry Williamson for a slice of glossy, pumped-up machine funk.

Thirty-eight years later, Frederiksberg Records is proud to present the first official reissue of these deep cuts from the golden years of The Big Apple’s post-disco/boogie era.
