Telstars – Orbiting

Orbiting is an album by the Telstars, a funk and soul group from the Caribbean scene, originally recorded in the 1970s and reissued by Mad About Records.

The record delivers a powerful blend of raw funk, psychedelic soul and Afro-Caribbean influences, driven by strong grooves, prominent basslines and a loose, organic rhythmic foundation. Featuring soulful performances and a warm, analogue sound, the album reflects the spirit of independent studio bands and projects of the era, where spontaneity and groove were at the core of the music. This reissue brings renewed attention to a rare and highly sought-after recording among collectors of vintage funk and soul, particularly within 1970s tropical and Caribbean-influenced sounds.
