Manchester post-punk and funk band A Certain Ratio's The Joy of Sextet is a new companion release to Sextet, the band's 1982 Factory Records album that they recorded in Revolution Studios in Cheadle Hulme, Stockport. Musically you can't get much starker contrast to the often grey skies of Greater Manchester than the life affirming riches of their third album Sextet, which was released five years after they first formed. There's a pan continental feel with Funkadelic having a profound influence in bringing new energy to the band's previously more monochrome aesthetic. The material selected to bolster our view into the A Certain Ratio sonic world was handled by Andy Meecham, also known as The Emperor Machine, who mixed the material from the original 1981 two-inch multitrack tapes, keeping a vintage feel that takes you straight back to 1982.
