Happy Mondays: Influences
Apple Music
Happy Mondays are a product of Manchester's thriving ‘80s electronic and indie scenes. They assimilated contemporary acid house tracks from A Guy Called Gerald and M/A/R/R/S, adding Funkadelic basslines, New Order's austere song structures, and references to classic rock songs such as Karl Denver's “Wimoweh,” in a freewheeling mash-up of their own record collections.
