Rare Detroit experimental funk soul album. Solo album by Tony Newton (Motown, Funk Brothers). Newton really puts the ‘multi’ into multi-instrumentalist, playing the synthesizers, the electric bass and the drum machine. Experimental is the keyword here, sounds vary from psych/trance (almost like a soundtrack from a space movie), to funk, fusion, rock, R&B, soul and jazz.

Novaphonia has both elements of Tony Newton’s impressive musical past and his vision for the future. Spacious synths, unusual instruments and an all-around cosmic approach make this an ‘out of this world’ and very intriguing album. Resonant, sonically rich, sonorous, colorful, mind-expanding sounds are what one should expect from the 20th century Novaphonic sound developed to its greatest extent. These harmonies are innately pleasing to the human ear, mind and nervous system. Tidal Waves Music presents the first-ever vinyl reissue of Novaphonia since its release in 1987.
