Slipstreem was an electronic music production duo of Steve Moore and Justin O'Neale,[1] who had a UK top 20 hit single in 1993.
History
[edit]The duo only produced one single, a rave cover version of the Rod Stewart hit "Sailing", under the title "We Are Raving - The Anthem". The single was recorded at Les Adams' LA Mix studios in Buckinghamshire and was the only release on Boogie Food Records, a sub-label of Island Records.[2] The vocals were done by session singer Stone, who had previously had success as a backing singer with Cliff Richard, including on his number 1 hit "Saviour's Day".[3]
The single entered the UK singles chart just before Christmas 1992, and rose to its peak at no. 18 in the second week in 1993.[4] The group performed the song on Top Of The Pops that week; it was the last rave song to be performed on the show.[5]
