Stereo Mc’s formed in mid ‘80s, inspired by electronic music and early HipHop. They pressed up their first 12″ vinyl and started an independent record label called G Street Records which released many UK hip hop artists and signed US acts such as Jungle Brothers.

Shortly after they signed to Island/4th and Broadway records and released their first LP and and toured extensively as a live act, garnering a reputation on multiple tours and festivals. Their 3rd LP, Connected, released in 1992, became a world wide hit and the song Connected became a classic tune.
