Biography

Rae & Christian emerged in the late '90s as a successor to the many stellar British production teams of the '90s, updating the rich urban grooves of Soul II Soul and Massive Attack with a bit more emphasis on classic hip-hop. The duo of Mark Rae and Steve Christian, often helped out by vocalist Veba, began recording together in 1995. Grand Central Records released several of their collaborative singles -- as well as a few solo singles by Rae -- beginning in 1996. The duo's debut album, Northern Sulphuric Soul, was released in late 1998. Sleepwalking followed three years later. The duo hooked up with Kinetic in late 2001 to mastermind the hypnotic collection Anotherlatenight for Rae & Christian's chill out favorites like Riton, Dubble D, Capoeira Twins and more.
