One Hit Thunder Episode 196: “Connected” by Stereo MCs

Today, we’re diving into the infectious world of Stereo MCs and their iconic track, “Connected.” Even if you think you don’t know it, chances are you’ve crossed paths with this chart-topping British group’s masterpiece, thanks to a cleverly placed sample and irresistible vocal melody that propelled them onto the US charts. These musical innovators also made waves by producing remixes for some of the biggest artists of their time. Despite their rise to fame in the early 90s, it took them over a decade to follow up their hit album, and they never quite replicated that mainstream success. Patreon wanted us to explore the Stereo MCs journey, so stay tuned as we uncover whether we truly connected with this group or if the writing was on the wall since the song’s release.
