		A Certain Ratio, who took their name from a lyric off Brian Eno's flawless pop album Taking Tiger Mountain, began their career alongside fellow Mancunians Joy Division back in the late '70s, crafting a sound that evolved through the bleak references of punk into a groove-oriented, party-funk band by the mid-'80s.

	A Certain Ratio
		Manchester band A Certain Ratio, became fascinated by the beat when their peers were trashing the melody and burying the beat that came with it.
		But ACR, a group that formed in 1978 and began to move feet in 1980 with their single "Shack Up" on Factory Records (Benelux), doesn't hold any tenets to the 80s.
		An even more dancefloor-oriented song, ACRs loose steppin' philosophy resonates: "take the chance and dance." Fueled by this enthusiastic inclusion on a fantastic comp, ACR has been gigging again lately, and is due to release a new album, Early, a double album of mostly unreleased mixes and BBC Peel Sessions, at the end of March.

	A certain ratio - Annette Sampson - smh.com.au
		Like most other financial ratios, it can provide a guide as to whether a company is a good investment.
		If the yield and the payout ratio are both low, it means investors in the company are relying heavily on share price growth for their returns.
		Heffernan says a low payout ratio can also be a sign that the company isn't focused on individual investors who see dividends as an important part of their total return.

		Formed during the ampthetamine-crazed soundwave that was Punk UK 1978, taking in influences from teutonic technotronicers Kraftwerk, powered by Wire and holding court in George Clinton's Funkadelic house of Parliament, A Certain Ratio took to the stage.
		The fruits of these sessions formed ACR's debut studio album, "To Each...", an album on which the impact was single-handedly destroyed by "that idiot hippie" - an in-house engineer at the studio who decided to zero all of Hannett's mix settings before he'd had chance to get the album to tape.
		ACR had come full-circle, they were a great pop group in the making, and there wasn't much Factory could do to help them anymore.
