They gained a recording contract from the UK dance record label Rhythm King. In July 1987, the resultant single “Rok da House“ was popular in the nightclubs. Their follow-up single “Females“ also was a minor hit in October 1987. The continuing popularity of “Rok da House“ in nightclubs eventually renewed interest in the track and garnered television appearances on the No Limitsprogramme. The record was remixed at the end of December 1987 and crossed over into the mainstream. The song became a Top 5 hit in the UK Singles Chart at the beginning of February 1988, and was used for an advertising campaign. The “embryonic hip-house track“ was “one of the earliest examples of hip house“. Watch our great music videos ❯ More TopPop?
