Nightmares in Wax - Biography - AOL Music Less a band than a training ground for a variety of Liverpudlian wannabes, Nightmares in Wax released only one EP during its brief existence, but that sole release was unforgettable. Nightmares in Wax now continued to exist more as a concept than as a functioning band; still, in May 1980, the group was offered a local radio session. Nightmares in Wax was dead, Dead or Alive was born, and Burn's rise to stardom was now beginning in earnest. music.aol.com /artist/nightmares-in-wax/481612/biography   (516 words)

The Windish Agency   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) Nightmares of course is not confined to the last century, directing the masses in 2002 to an addictive urban brew of pop, dancehall and old-soul that was Mind Elevation, infecting the airwaves that following summer with the sweet vocals, lush chimes and lolloping hip-hop beats of Know My Name and 70's / 80's. Once again, the Nightmares seal is evident; rhythms infectious in their simplicity, blues infused time signatures overlaid by Quincy Jones-esque synth lines and the inherent fusion of relaxed dub and Balearic melodies. Progression and development is the prime motivation of Nightmares on Wax: "Today's music is inspired by what's gone on before and that is what fascinates me. Following on in that tradition I am inspired by the old and want to evolve it into something new. www.windishagency.com /bio_nightmaresonwax.htm   (977 words)

AmbientMusicGuide.com - Nightmares On Wax British DJ and composer George Evelyn aka Nightmares On Wax was one of its earliest exponents and these two albums remain a testament to that sub-genre's enduring qualities despite its fall from fashion in the late 90's. Evelyn's pioneering work was typical of the brave new genre-hopping world of UK dance and electronic music in the first half of the 90's, as defined by labels as diverse as Warp, Mo Wax and Emit. Nightmares On Wax was originally a duo and a very different entity to one most people recognise today. www.ambientmusicguide.com /pages/N/nightmaresOnWax.php   (562 words)

Rockbeatstone | Reviews | Nightmares on Wax - In a Space Outta Sound   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) It seems incongruous, therefore, that George Evelyn, better known as DJ E.A.S.E., the brains behind Nightmares on Wax, should have been so criticised for Mind Elevation, the album preceding this current one. Instead, Nightmares on Wax had employed a troupe of diverse, talented collaborators and created a quilted homage to soul, funk and old-school hip-hop. As is typical with Nightmares on Wax, there are several instances where the music sounds somewhat unfocused and lost, with the Latin-influenced 'Deepdown' being a good example. www.rockbeatstone.com /reviews/albums/nightmaresonwax.html   (385 words)

When Nightmares on Wax's debut SMOKER'S DELIGHT was released on England's Mo' Wax label in 1995, it helped to solidify the label's reputation for innovative electronic dance music.

Nightmares on Wax: Carboot Soul ---Ink Blot Magazine   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) Lumped into post-acid's so-called bleep techno scene along with 808 State and LFO, Nightmares on Wax were early pioneers of the mix-and-match aesthetic that would drive British dance music in the mid-'90s. Yet here it is, straight outta Leeds, courtesy of ex-rave icons Nightmares on Wax, a timeless, instrumental antidote to the grotesque wailing of Mariah, Dru Hill and the like. Taking their cue from the Love Unlimited Orchestra, Gamble and Huff and Rakim, Nightmares on Wax come off like the sunny flipside to Massive Attack's brooding, icy trip-hop. www.inkblotmagazine.com /rev-archive/Nightmares.htm   (417 words)

Nightmares on Wax MP3 Downloads - Nightmares on Wax Music Downloads - Nightmares on Wax Music Videos The combined project of George Evelyn and Kevin Harper, Nightmares on Wax were one of the brightest spots on the post-rave British techno map of the early '90s. Following a four-year hiatus, Evelyn resurfaced with a track on the Mo\' Wax Headz compilation and, soon after, Smoker\'s Delight, basically an instrumental hip-hop album with a distinctively British eclecticism. In 2000, NOW produced the first new material by De La Soul in several years, included on an EP (The Sound of N.O.W) featuring the rap pioneers. www.mp3.com /Nightmares-on-Wax/artists/154215/summary.html   (361 words)

Nightmares on Wax, In a Space Outta Sound | | Guardian Unlimited Arts Nightmares on Wax, In a Space Outta Sound George Evelyn - Nightmares on Wax - is Warp's most enduring act though not one of their most prolific; this is only his fifth album since making bleep techno for the label in 1990. Yawning gaps are probably expected from an artist who has an album called Smokers Delight and accepts invitations to judge the quality of weed at competitions in Amsterdam - though Evelyn's lush, detailed, often cinematic music can't be hurried. arts.guardian.co.uk /filmandmusic/story/0,,1732434,00.html   (228 words)

Browse by Artist: NIGHTMARES ON WAX "Nightmares on Wax's A Word of Science was recorded at the height of happy hardcore fever that gripped the UK in the early 1990s. Alongside groups such as the Prodigy, LFO and Unique 3, Nightmares on Wax introduced a hard electronic sound that tore up house music and overthrew acid. Both tunes reflect the increasing influence of Ecstasy on the rave scene as mellow euphoria was replaced by a sharper, teeth-grinding groove. www.forcedexposure.com /artists/nightmares.on.wax.html   (615 words)

The History of Rock Music. Nightmares On Wax: biography, discography, reviews, links   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) Nightmares On Wax, is a pioneer of Bristol's trip-hop, even if A Word Of Science (Warp, 1991), featuring Aftermath, and especially the elegant Smokers Delight (Wax Trax, 1995) sound more like 1970s' funk-jazz (A Night's Interlude). Carboot Soul (Warp, 1999), which was released again four years after the previous one, adds a couple of soul ballads (neither worth of being mentioned) and a touch of world-music (Arghanoah) to the usual laid-back lullabies (Morse). George Evelyn e` uno dei pionieri del trip-hop di Bristol, anche se A Word Of Science (Warp), con Aftermath, e soprattutto, quattro anni dopo, l'elegantissimo Smokers Delight (Wax Trax, 1995) dei suoi Nightmares On Wax sembrano piu` che altro dischi di funk-jazz degli anni '70. www.scaruffi.com /vol6/nightmar.html   (203 words)

Eyeball Kid - Nightmares on Wax - Live Review The lights have dimmed and the final leg of Nightmares On Wax's three date UK tour is about to begin. George Evelyn, the man behind the name, wants his shows to be "amazing, exclusive gigs", and as the background screen lights up with a slowly moving starscape, the feeling is it just might be. As Evelyn says as he dances across the stage, "it used to be in the ass, now it's in the shoulders", and the slow-grooving crowd agree. www.eyeballkid.com /nightmaresonwaxl.htm   (378 words)

nightmares on wax, the sweetest George Evelyn (aka Nightmares On Wax) has retreated firmly into the fug which first spawned his smoke-shrouded sound - eschewing Lunnpoly pop and returning to the trademark vibrations that served so well on 'Carboot Soul' and 'Smokers Delight'. Sounding so much like Nightmares On Wax you could recognise them from ten miles away, this piece of candy-red vinyl features album cuts 'The Sweetest' and 'Thaihi' - with the A indulging in some addictive bass excursions and mealy breaks, whilst on the back the paranoia sets in as the electronic bugs approach. Languid, smooth and with a teasingly elusive female vocal, 'The Sweetest' may be NoW by numbers - but when it sounds as beatific as this, we're willing to let it pass for seven inches. www.boomkat.com /item.cfm?id=21404   (285 words)

Nightmares On Wax, MP3 Music Download at eMusic Although the group was later pared back to just Evelyn and a handful of contributors, NOW's debut album, A Word of Science, was -- along with early tracks by LFO... Forming in the late '80s in West Yorkshire as an extension of Evelyn and company's b-boy crew the Soul City Rockers, NOW's first singles, "Dextrous" and "Aftermath," were both highly regarded, and the latter shot into the pop singles Top 40. The subsequent album laid a good deal of the groundwork for the downtempo experimental hip-hop/electro-funk worked over by Mike Paradinas, Luke Vibert, Spacer, and others, and earned the group a secure spot among techno's select crew of next-step innovators. www.emusic.com /artist/10566/10566599.html   (417 words)

Amardeep Singh: Nightmares on Wax: Flip Ya Lid (MP3) It's from the downtempo/chillout group Nightmares on Wax, working a roots rock reggae sound with a beautiful dubby bass lick. When I first heard it on XPN last week, I thought it was a remix of an old reggae track. The whistle is now my ringtone, which threw me off at first - I'd be playing the track, and thinking my phone was ringing. www.lehigh.edu /~amsp/2006/04/nightmares-on-wax-flip-ya-lid-mp3.html   (470 words)
