RAISING HELL
RUN-DMC
IT STARTED WITH A DIS
TIM SIMENON, AKA BOMB THE BASS, CREATED ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT DANCE SINGLES OF THE LATE 80S. BEFORE HE KNEW IT, THE YOUNG LONDON DJ HAD BECOME AN ACCIDENTAL POP STAR, BEEN BANNED BY RADIO 1 AND REMIXED EVERYONE FROM BJÖRK TO BOWIE. THEN HE KNOCKED HIS MUSIC CAREER ON THE HEAD TO OPEN A BISTRO IN PRAGUE. “WELL, THIS IS PRETTY MENTAL,” HE TELLS OLIVER HURLEY.
POP ART GRAHAM SMITH
HIS GRAPHIC DESIGN HELPED DEFINE A VISUAL STYLE FOR SEVERAL MUSICAL ACTS IN THE EARLY 80s INCLUDING SPANDAU BALLET, SADE AND MATT BIANCO. USING THE PAST AS INSPIRATION TO PACKAGE SOUNDS OF THE FUTURE, GRAHAM SMITH’S WORK GRACED SOME OF THE MOST ELEGANT SLEEVES OF THE ERA.
THE NAME GAME
What’s in a name? Sometimes a lot, sometimes, well, not a lot. Some band names are so prosaic, there’s nothing to tell about their invention. Others, on the other hand, are a band’s way of proving how clever they are. Or to communicate what comics they love, or what highbrow books they’ve had their heads buried in. Here, then, is our guide to the origins of the names of some of your favourite 80s pop groups… And it turns out sci-fiis a weirdly common inspiration…
