Beats International

About

Beats International was an electronic music band, formed in the late 1980s by Norman Cook, after his departure from The Housemartins. A loose confederation of musicians, the line-up also included vocalists Lindy Layton and Lester Noel, rapper MC Wildski, and keyboardist Andy Boucher.

Their first album, Let Them Eat Bingo spawned the number one UK single Dub Be Good To Me, a re-working of the S.
