Groovetek biography

US eurodance project Groovetek were first known as Rhythm Boyz House from 1991 to 1992, and released 2 songs : Babylon Groove and Feel the music. Then, when they heard Eurodance music songs such as 2 Unlimited's Twilight Zone and Culture Beat's Mr. Vain they decided they wanted to go that sort of style too.

The project started as T.I.O featuring Groovetek. They released 2 songs : In And Out in 1996 and Let's Groove Tonight in 1998 (a cover of Earth Wind & Fire). Then released an album in 2000-2001 called The Anthem. It contained 3 beautiful eurodance songs with rap, female vocal & good synths. Lead female vocal : Melanie Turner. Rap: Walid Ishak aka MC Roc. It was produced by Hamid Ahang & Steve B. Isaac. Lyrics were written by Walid Ishak, music was composed by Steve B. Isaac, Robert Turner. Background vocals were done by Robert Turner.

Groovetek tried hard to find a record label in Europe, but in vain. The Anthem was their last release and in 2002 Groovetek disbanded. 3 years later Melanie Turner passed away from cancer. Walid Ishak is still in the music business, doing projects with other artists like famous Assyrian pop singer Linda George, doing a rap in Assyrian. In 2013 he released a single called Shermatha in Assyrian under stage name Rawaya. He still keeps up with other group members

Thanks to D'man 94 and to MC Roc
