When moving to Florida in 1993, BRiAN heard the song Wiggle Wiggle by Disco Rick (Luke Records) play on every radio station on the drive down to Florida.
BRiAN saw the video Wiggle Wiggle playing a lot on The Box TV when he got to Florida!
As a producer, BRiAN was looking for record deals and stopped at Vision Records in Miami where he met Disco Rick who was working behind the mixing console there.
Who is Disco Rick? You'll be shocked!

BRiAN told Rick - WOW - You're the star on the record I heard on the radio all the way down to Florida and in video non-stop on The Box!
Rick asked BRiAN to show him what he could do with a song idea he had in mind. BRiAN came back the next day with the song fully produced - Rick looked at BRiAN in disbelief - how could this be?!?!? - BRiAN hooked up his SP1200 drum machine to the mixing console at Vision Records and hit play.
Rick's head started bobbing to the beat - he turned the song up louder and had a huge smile on his face. He then turned the volume to zero. Told BRiAN - yeah - you got lucky on this one - bet you can't do it again for this other song - no deal today boy!!! Come back when you're ready!!
BRiAN came back the very next day and Rick was like - yeah - sure - not possible - but let's give it a listen anyway- BRiAN repeated the whole process with the same result! Rick loved the song.
Rick said "let's go white boy" and walked BRiAN into the CEO's office!
BRiAN was signed on the spot and produced 2 albums with singles featuring Disco Rick and also Fresh Kid Ice of the 2 Live Crew on Vision Records.
Eventually BRiAN produced Disco Rick,
