Stereo MC's bridge British hip-hop and electronic dance music, with vocalist Rob Birch and DJ-producer Nick Hallam at the core. Their 1990 album Supernatural brought attention through “Elevate My Mind,” before the title track of 1992's Connected carried their music to a much wider international audience.
Birch has described “Connected” as a record built gradually around a tiny break discovered on a Jimmy ‘Bo’ Horne recording while working at home in Battersea. That hands-on approach still informs the group: discussing their True To Life tour, he spoke of combining older methods with modern technology, while Hallam described bringing club-oriented material together with the established Stereo MC's sound.
