mr. electric tirangle is chris bangs.
rare groove ... acid jazz ... hippy house... talking loud ... the
balearic beat - all influential sounds, scenes and styles that
went off with a bangs !
no doubt about it, chris bangs has been a pioneering and
inspirational figure in the british underground dance scene of the
80s and 90s and helped to light up the burgeoning black music
dance scene of the early eighties.
bangs' name became associated with many celebrated events - from
the special branch, cock happy and doos at the zoo to his own
bournemouth bank holiday sessions, the caister, prestatyn and
rockley sands weekenders and even the original corfu and ibiza
'summers of love'.
towards the end of the 80s, chris really hit pay dirt as a musical
trend -setter with the birth of acid jazz as a producer and artist
responsible for many early recordings on eddie piller's acid jazz
label and gilles peterson's talkin' loud (producing galliano's
celebrated debut album)
his success internationally enabled chris to set up his own studio
and production company, thin air. his talents were soon spotted
outside of the acid jazz scene with paul weller utilising chris's
production skills. this liaison led to a partnership with weller's
former style council-er mick talbot as soundscapeuk - one of a
whole range of projects marked by the bangs stamp that have
secured commercial and critical acclaim from the usa, japan,
europe and australia.
today, chris can be found in his studio surrounded by his records
and a host of musical collaborators so don't be surprised if he's
too busy to talk. instead, try asking the aforementioned piller,
weller, or peterson as well as the likes of oakenfold, tong,
holloway, rampling and many more for a genuine endorsement of one
of our true pioneers.
note: b3 doesn't show on the cover and ends with an infinite loop i
have left spinning a few rounds and faded out.
