During an era of sonic transformation, Clarke successfully blended his world-class bass mastery with the polished electronic textures of the mid-80s. Produced primarily by Clarke himself, the album is a testament to his versatility, moving away from pure jazz-fusion toward a more rhythmic, danceable, and synth-heavy sound.

The record is a vibrant journey through 80s funk, featuring the infectious, slap-heavy groove of "Play The Bass" and the atmospheric, melodic textures of "Future Shock." Throughout the album, Clarke’s signature "thumb-popping" technique remains the driving force, cutting through a lush landscape of analog synthesizers and programmed percussion. On vinyl, the punchy and crisp production shines, offering a deep, synthesized low-end and a pristine high-end that perfectly captures the aesthetic of the decade.

"Time Exposure" is a must-have LP for fans of 80s funk, R&B, and experimental fusion. It captures a legend fearlessly embracing the digital revolution while maintaining the soulful, percussive core that made him a global icon. Whether you are a bass enthusiast or a collector of high-fidelity 80s production, this record is a mandatory addition to your turntable.
