In this limited run segment I will be exploring the pioneers that have shaped and influenced the EDM we have today. In this episode we will cover British Pop Music group, Yazz & The Plastic Population. Yazz and The Plastic Population was formed in the late 80’s by Yasmin Evans and electronic music duo Coldcut. Yazz was originally working as a backup singer for various artists; she was launching her solo career working with Producer duo Coldcut. Coldcut was working on a project and created a fictional band called The Plastic Population for a series of animated videos. This later evolved into Yazz performing with them at real shows and they eventually became a real group. One of the group's biggest hits was released in 1988 called "The Only Way Is Up". Take a listen to it here. "The Only Way Is Up" has earned a place at the top of the charts in various countries such as Ireland, New Zealand and the UK.
