19th Fleet

19th Fleet was the production duo of Kevin Calhoun (R.I.P.) and Matt Noble and this track was a result of their experimentation with sampling, synthesizers and drum machines.

The duo worked on a lot of hits of the time, helping to birth the Latin freestyle sound with tracks like Leather & Lace’s 'Tender Heart' with Matt being the in-house producer for 25 West and all related labels. They helped produce classics such as Dynamic Duo’s 'Knights of the Turntables', Sha-Quan 'Don’t Fess', B Beat Girls 'For The Same Man', etc.
Matt has been involved in the production and engineering for artists as varied as Donny Osmond, Procol Harum, Jennifer Rush & Rihanna. For the hip hop heads out there he was also one of the engineers on the classic Akinyele album Vagina Diner.

Kevin was the engineer for Nocera’s “Summertime Summertime” which was one of the big Latin freestyle hits that managed to cross the pond to the UK and for the hip hop heads, he played the guitar riff on the dirty dub mix of the Mantronix hit “ Me Please”.

The duo also appeared on Paul Shaffer’s 1989 release ‘When The Radio Is On’ and actually wrote all the lyrics for Ecstasy (Whodini) and Will Smith.
