In this limited run series, I will be exploring the pioneers that have shaped and influenced the EDM we have today. In this episode I will be featuring British Electronic Group, “Faithless”. In 1995, Maxi Jazz, Sister Bliss and Rollo Armstrong formed the trio "Faithless". Each member had a unique contribution to the group. Maxi Jazz brought his distinct vocal and lyrical style, Sister Bliss wrote songs as well as played keyboards and Rollo Armstrong was an accomplished producer. The band set themselves apart by blending together sounds from a range of genres, including house, trance, trip-hop and down tempo. A perfect example of this unique blend is their highly acclaimed song “Insomnia”; take a listen here. “Insomnia” received widespread commercial success and charted in multiple countries and becoming a club hit. The success of this track enabled “Faithless” to not only reach a wider audience but also leave an impact that contributed to future EDM productions. That’s it for this Vinyl’s from the past, now lets get back to the music. Bec: Start – 18:58 and End – 23:40Rebecca Godfrey,
