Space Invadas are Katalyst and Steve Spacek. In the 1960's when aliens visited earth, they took many things back into space to analyze. One of the things they took was numerous examples of soul music. Feeling a great affiliation with the music they proceeded to write their own songs. Not having the vintage equipment to record them properly, they sent them to Space Invadas to record.
