And the correct answers (in case you missed one or two) are:
1. The “Burn” remix by Norman Cook predates his global fame as Fatboy Slim. It’s one of the eclectic mixes in his late ’90s repertoire.
2. “Rocksteady” achieved No. 97 on the UK Singles Chart. The track marked a solo venture before Morgan’s artistic shift to filmmaking.
3. “Risky” by FPI Project climbed to No. 90 in the UK. Its brief charting reflected the era’s dance craze.
4. This 1995 single by Ultimate Kaos hit No. 18 in the UK, showcasing the boy band’s rise in the mid-’90s pop scene.
5. The song for Yell! had no melodic similarities to The Fixx’s hit. It’s pure late ’80s synthpop flair for teen idol allure.
6. Peaking at No. 74 in the UK, “Dirty Money” secured Dee Fredrix’s brief but notable presence on the charts.
7. The collaboration on “Rock to the Rhythm” featured vocalist Federal, bridging dance and pop in various mixes.
8. Saxophone, a staple in Guru Josh’s early sound, returns as a key element in his 1990 release.
9. “Club Bizarre” features a sample from Alannah Myles’ track, mixing ’90s Eurodance with rock textures.
10. Eat Static’s “Contact” chugged at 134 BPM, encapsulating their signature dance-electro hybrid.
11. Blast’s “Crazy Man” was released on X-CLUSIVE Records, signifying their Italian Eurodance roots.
12. “Sweetest Day Of May” debuted in 1994, paving the way for later remixes and multiple releases.
