British band Stereo MC's broke internationally: as the first UK hiphop act with a single charting in America (Elevate My Mind), earning them a live reputation on top. Their definite breakthrough was with the '92 cd Connected, recommended for being sample free. Whatever that means, considering the obvious similarity between the title track's groove and Jimmy Bo Horne's 15 year older disco smash. This living exponent of Miami Sound, backed by Harry Casey from KC & The Sunshine Band fame, adorns numerous modern dance compilation, Virgin's first double comp Sampled in particular, back-to-back with Stereo MC's.
