A Man Called Adam - Barefoot In The Head

A MAN CALLED ADAM
Barefoot In The Head
1990 Big Life

From acid-jazz collective to mellow Ibizan house masterminds, A Man Called Adam have pursued much the same fusion of gentle jazz/house rhythms with classic pop songwriting despite the progression of stylistic identifiers used to describe their sound. Comprised of Sally Rodgers and Steve Jones, the group have kept a close connection to the dance community, courtesy of their ownership of Other Records, a jazz-house label with releases from Chris Coco, Idjut Boys and Sensory Productions.

Originally founded as a jazz band, led by Sally Rodgers, Steve Jones, former members include Paul Daley, who later to formed Leftfield with Neil Barnes. Signed to the pioneering Acid Jazz Records enabled the group to find more gigs, and debut with a pair of singles. These early recordings, “A.P.B.” and “Earthly Powers,” reflected more recent influences — namely the acid-house explosion which had rocked British clubs and charts during the late ’80s. Winnowed down to a threesome of Rodgers/Jones/Daley, A Man Called Adam signed to Big Life in 1990 and just missed the British Top 40 that year with “Barefoot in the Head.” After Daley left the fold, Rodgers and Jones followed with their first LP, The Apple. Unhappy with their treatment by Big Life (a sentiment echoed by the Orb at the same time), Rodgers and Jones decided to form their own label, Other Records, with design artist and longtime friend Steve “Jaffa” Gribbin.

Electribe 101 - Talking With Myself (Remix)

ELECTRIBE 101
Talking With Myself (Remix)
1990 Mercury


Electribe 101 was a British based electronic music group in the late 1980s / early1990s, managed by Tom Watkins of Bros, Pet Shop Boys, and 2wo Third3 fame.
Named for a Soviet refrigerator (not the Korg line of musical instruments - the band predates those by a decade), the band was comprised of four electronic composers/producers from Birmingham (Brian Nordhoff, Joe Stevens, Les Fleming, and Roberto Cimarosti) and a female vocalist from Hamburg in Germany (Billie Ray Martin).
Before signing to Mercury Records in 1988, they released their first single Talking With Myself without much success. However before the next single release, Billie Ray Martin guested with Eric Robinson of Eric and the Good Good Feeling on the S’Express record, Hey Music Lover.
The Top Ten success of Hey Music Lover sparked interest from the music press in Billie Ray Martin’s band, though Eric and the Good Good Feeling’s album flopped on Exquinox. Electribe 101 were signed to Mercury/Phonogram and a press blitz (justified in this case) concerning their groundbreaking singles commenced as “Tell Me When The Fever Ended” (their first release on Mercury) was hitting the racks.
In 1990 Electribe 101 released their debut album called Electribal Memories to critical acclaim. The groups tracks were compared heavily to the music of Larry Heard a.k.a. Fingers Inc. and later as Mr. Fingers. Both Heard and fellow house pioneer Frankie Knuckle contributed remixes. “Electribal Memories” was a slinky house based album in a style similar to other early 90's acts such as The Beloved and Sunsonic. Electribe 101 stood out for their mixture of hip-hop beats (used as samples to garnish their grooves), techno house, avante-garde poetry and classic American soul.
