The Earons landed on our Earth in 1983 and brought an interesting sound to discos and the streets. Their sound is self described as "astro funk" that was inspired by the cosmic mythology of Sun Ra with a bit of Anthony Braxton's mathematica. The band members names are all numbers (which add up to 1.7). Their first track, 1983's Video Baby, is yet another song about the emerging world of video games and video entertainment. Their track Land Of Hunger is a reggae influenced pop-disco track that has a lot of elements to love. Sadly the band returned to their native Earon Earth in 1984.

Hey I got the "Land of Hunger" 12" and like most disco 12"s it has a couple of different versions on it. This one has a Extended, dub and radio version. It would be really cool if you guys would put up all versions from these 12"s because some of them are really different and cool.
