Experience the timeless allure of Messages From The Stars, the 1983 cosmic boogie anthem by The RAH Band, led by the multi-talented Richard Anthony Hewson. A true sleeper hit, this interstellar classic peaked at No. 42 on the UK charts before finding its way into global acclaim decades later. Rediscovered by DJs and tastemakers, it now stands as a testament to Hewson’s pioneering sound and its ability to transcend generations.
Crafted in Hewson’s home studio with a Roland SH5 synthesizer, the track’s ethereal vocals—delivered with unpolished charm by Hewson’s then-wife Liz—added an irresistible warmth. The infectious fusion of spacey synths, funky basslines, and playful lyrics makes Messages a standout in the canon of boogie-funk.
Its revival story is as vibrant as the track itself: from becoming a dancefloor centrepiece in DāM-FunK’s iconic Funkmosphere sets to being featured on Frank Ocean’s Blonded radio show in 2019. A viral TikTok explosion in 2020 cemented its position as a cult phenomenon, uniting listeners across the globe.
Today, Richard Anthony Hewson still crafts music from his seaside garage studio in Sussex, surrounded by the very equipment that birthed this space-disco gem. Messages From The Stars is a love letter to both the past and future of music, connecting generations through its celestial charm.
