Stereo Mc’s are probably best known for their international Top 20 hit single ‘Connected’, which was released in 1992 and
taken from the ‘Connected’ album of the same year. The album reached #2 in the UK Album Chart and also contained the
aforementioned hits ‘Step It Up’, ‘Creation’, and ‘Ground Level’, and led to the group winning two Brit Awards for Best
Group and Best Album in 1994.
Being childhood friends and neighbours, Rob and Nick formed Stereo MC’s in the mid-eighties, with the pair inspired to
make music by their combined love of early hip-hop, funk and electronic music.
Following recordings for Pias, K7 and Graffiti they continued their long relationship with club music, starting the label
‘connected’ in 2015, initially to release their own new music, but also releasing other artists, and have since become
established in the ever-popular Afro House genre. They have also collaborated with some of the biggest current names in
house music via releases with Adam Port and Keinemusik and Stil Vor Talent, and have featured guest spots with Re.You
, Anja Schneider, Fred Everything and many others.
