Baby Ford

Peter Ford, better known as Baby Ford, is a British electronic music record producer, known particularly for his contributions to the birth of acid house. He has also released material under the aliases Cassino Classix, El Mal, Solcyc, and Simprini Risin'.

Career

Ford was influenced by Chicago musicians such as Marshall Jefferson, Ron Trent, Armando, and Larry Heard, and was one of the founders of the acid house scene in the United Kingdom. His early work was released on Rhythm King, including the club tracks "Oochy Koochy (F.U. Baby Yeah Yeah)" (UK #58), and "Chikki Chikki Ahh Ahh" (UK #54). These two first singles appeared on the 2x12" EP "Ford Trax" (BFORD3.)

Both appeared in remixed form on the EP, and the original singles were remixed on a variety of different formats (12" and CD) and energized the burgeoning UK acid-house scene. Sire Records in the US signed Baby Ford, as well as several other artists, on the Rhythm King label. Sire had been impressed with the label, but reportedly had concerns about how to effectively market Rhythm King artists in the US, as acid house had not broken into the US mainstream. The second album Oooh, the World of Baby Ford contained three singles, the most popular of which was 1989's "Children of the Revolution" (UK #53). It was also a club hit across the globe, as was 1990's "Beach Bump" (UK #68). The US released the "Let's Talk It Over" EP in 1990, with exclusive live tracks. The tracks were recorded on Baby Ford's tour of the US, where he opened for Depeche Mode on several dates of their Violator tour.

Papo Furado

by: Gustavo Lins

Sei que tem alguém do lado
Que tá me evitando
Mas quer meu amor
Eu não sei mandar recado
Quando estou amando, bem direto eu sou
Quer saber, tô falando é com você
Por que não acreditar no amor
Que eu quero te dar?
Não cai nessa armadilha
Tão botando pilha
Mas vou te dizer
Que essa historia de passado
É papo furado, não tem nada a ver
Eu não sou só mais um conquistador
Meu amor é pra valer
Deixa então eu provar pra você
Não é fácil encontrar um amor pra se entregar
Então pára de ouvir o que falam por aí
Quando estou com você, qualquer um consegue ver
Tô vidrado, amarrado, loucamente apaixonado.
