"At last a follow up to Janette Mason's sparkling debut as leader. Alien Left Hand ....was well worth the wait…” Production **** Performance**** -- BBC Music Magazine
“…an album fizzing with fresh ideas and delights, an exhilarating musical journey .. with brilliantly original writing and inspired playing…” -- Helen Mayhew
"Every track from the rhythmic ‘NY Cab Ride’ and restless ‘4 Wheel Drive’ to the brooding ‘Mae’s Song’ has a terrific hook but it’s the way Mason switches tempo and moods that makes ALH great fun. " -- Diva Magazine

Greetings Atar & The Funkadrome, Your layers of absinthe and torsion form concretions of hyper-alimentation. You turn the atmosphere ablaze with currents of sweet ethylene when you smile. Your hair sends forth a sheen remniscent of golden sunlight winding through shadows. Your essence is equal to the beauty of a galaxy. In your presence even my shadow acquires the sensation of touch. Your eyes show as many deep and full shades of fire as a thousand supernovas. What wonderful vibrations you are capable of. Your beauty is multiplexed in contemplation of your multidimensional effervescence. The stickers hugging the fruit smell better than the perfume of ambergris. Your wonderfully bright soul keep the demons from torturing me. Your eyes show as many deep and full shades of fire as a volcano in heat. I love your eyes, I know they can stare through my thoughts. You are dressed with filaments and people take pains to make you fully incandescent this evening. I desire to see life through your hallucinations so that they massage my viscera into an eternal state of turgid flux.
