VF Mix 135: Supermax by Earthboogie

More than just a disco love machine.

Cosmic space funk troupe Supermax was a project founded in Frankfurt during the late seventies by multi-instrumentalist Kurt Hauenstein.

Best known for their hit 1977 single, ‘Love Machine’, the group later became the first multi-racial band to tour South Africa in the early nineties, despite death threats throughout their 21-date tour.

To take you through the funky canon of Supermax’s 11-album output, are production and DJ duo Earthboogie, whose first full length LP Human Call is out 11th May on Leng.
