Nightmares On Wax
There is more than one artist under this name:
1) Nightmares on Wax is DJ and musician George Evelyn, also known as dj ease (Experimental Sample Expert), from Leeds, United Kingdom. The musical style is a combination of electronic sounds and hip hop beats, often regarded as "chill out". Nightmares On Wax's music is released on Warp Records.
2) After the demise of the band, Mystery Girls, Pete Burns returned in February 1979 with Nightmares In Wax (being converted to 'Nightmares on Wax' due to old last.fm moderation system).
Nightmares In Wax's sole aim was to be the worst group in history. "We started the group because we had a stolen keyboard and thought we had to do something with it", Burns recalls. Despite its continually changing line-up, the group was asked by Pete Fullwell to record a single, "Black Leather" - an homage to leather-clad motorcyclists - for his Inevitable label.
The record only sold moderately, despite being released a total of three times. 1983 saw 'Black Leather' included on a three track EP entitled 'Birth Of A Nation' and in its original format once again in 1985 at the peak of Dead or Alive's success.
Despite Burns feeling ambivalent towards the record, he was quite happy to sign copies whenever asked and these crop up from time to time in online auctions.
