“The guys behind UK Electro were Greg Wilson, Andy Connell and Martin Jackson (formerly the drummer in Magazine). Wilson was previously the DJ at Legend, The Exit and The Hacienda, amongst other Manchester clubs, and made a successful return to DJing in 2003, nowadays playing all over the World (he was also manager and producer of the Ruthless Rap Assassins between 1987-1991). Connell and Jackson went on to form Swing Out Sister.
