17:53 PMDrive Time: Rewind and Remix 1991 British electronic group comprising Mark Archer and Chris Peat, until Peat left the group in 1994. Altern 8 tunes influenced many artists, with their mixture of the sounds of the Roland TB-303, 808 and 909 with break-beats and familiar samples. At the time in the UK, outdoor rave events were legal, and Altern 8 had a reputation for turning up to play at major unofficial events. They helped to define harder house tracks relying more heavily on bass and volume. The use of more bass and eclectic noises gradually evolved Altern 8's music away from the earlier house music style. The duo, dressed in chemical warfare suits and dancing "like electrofied monkeys", took part in a large number of live performances. bit.ly Altern 8 - "Infiltrate 202": youtu.be altern8official.bandcamp.com www.altern8official.comKevin Cole
