“Bass! How low can you go?”

 

One of the first house acts from the United Kingdom to break through to the pop charts, Simon Harris is best known for his brilliant hit single ‘Bass! How low can you go’ as well as the hip-house smash ‘Another Monsterjam’ and that slightly annoying remix of the ‘Super Mario Brothers’ theme tune that was released under the name the’ Ambassadors Of Funk’ on his own ‘Living Beat’ recording company.

 

Joining Simon on the last two singles was the British MC ‘Einstein’, a rapper not too dissimilar to ‘Derek B’, ‘Merlin’ or, in his hip-house ‘Technotronic’ phase, MC Eric ‘Me One’ Martin. In fact it is not surprising, knowing the nature of house music producers and these hired emcees, that ‘Einstein’ actually ended up replacing ‘MC Eric’ as the featured performer with ‘Technotronic’, of whom he released the bass bumper ‘Turn It Up’ with.
