Selectabwoy: Evolution Of Hardcore Part VI

Evolution Of Hardcore (Part VI)

Utomica ‘Rok A Bye’ – its one of those holy grails that people were always asking me for. “It would be great if you could make this one happen” the emails and messages would say, and these messages were regular, not just from one super keen person, but from many people. It became a quest for me to track down the creators of this 12″ and a bloody long quest it turned out to be. But good things do come to those that wait and this is one of those times that patience paid off.

So its a Sunday night, February 2020 and three middle aged men are trying to work out how to do a 3-way Whatsapp call. Well, its not the technological side of it all that’s the struggle, all 3 are aufait with that side of things, its getting us all free at the same time to make it happen! Previous arranged dates had been and gone. Its not like a quick 10 minute call, these interviews are over an hour, sometimes two hours, as we drill down into how things came about, so for everyone to have that much time set aside from the family and other responsibilities takes some organising… and for Whatsapp to be able to retain the channels open, well, that’s just pot luck. The drop outs were frequent, but the perseverance was second to none… and so we chatted.

I have Martin Lee-Stephenson and David Salvi both on the phone at once, both of the members of Utomica and artists on the Pro-One label through various guises. My first question ‘Where did the name come from?’ “It was a bit improvised, we needed a new name for a more jungle sounding project, we were always wanting to stay ahead of the curve and try new musical styles. At the time I was into weird and wonderful stuff”. Martin kicks things off, adding “We were working on weird physics names at the time and we felt that we were sound scientists”. “We would have endless conversations about science and synths and always wanted to stay in touch with the musical advent garde” David continues “So the name Utomica just sounded right for this new project”.

Martin (who was living just behind the soon to be opened Blue Note in Hoxton – “Law and Auder and the Rising High Studios were a five minute walk from my flat. Howie B lived two doors away and Jarvis Cocker was upstairs for a while!) is from a rock background but caught onto the acid house scene that was kicking off in London in the late 80’s and decided that was where he wanted to go musically. David was more from the soul and jazz scenes that London had to offer and was already moving around in the early hardcore scene – “My main connection to the scene was through De Underground Records/Reel to Reel Productions (John Aymer/Flex/Mike) who I met when Hopa recommended me for some engineering work, they then approached me to engineer a remix of “We Are E”. It was in fact through these guys that I met Mike (Michael Whittaker) who had originally formed Pro One. We met, got on brilliantly and within a few days decided to combine forces and keep the label name Pro One. This was in late 1991. The studio was then reformed and renamed as Pro One Recordings”.

They first linked together in 1992 as they both had a mutual friends, but the main linchpin was a guy called Bobbi Style who was a singer and had a band called The Love Junkies, signed to Pro One for an album. Bobbi’s Dynamic Studios was based in Hoxton and David had been drafted in to engineer the project whilst Martin had been asked to play bass guitar and during the downtime, David and Martin bonded over their mutual love of the growing hardcore scene. It was from this chance encounter that they decided to start making music together, their first collaboration being this release, ‘Rok-A-Bye’. Utomica had been born.
