R&B/Soul and Hip-Hop/Rap
British studio assemblage Basically a formation of U.K. TV producers Graham De Wilde and Adrian Sear in 1981 for a funky - novelty - comedy impersonation of TV personality Alan Whicker in their single "Wikka Wrap", No.9 in the U.K. chart, No.20 in the U.S. R'n'B chart and No.19 in the U.S. Hot Dance Chart that year. Coolio sampled the song in his 1996 single "1, 2, 3, 4 (Sumpin' New)". In the next Evasions singles, Nigel Martinez was added to the production team. Graham De Wilde also played The Great Prophet Zarquon in the TV series of The Hitch-Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy.
