Rham!

British independent record label formed in 1987 to release dance music predominantly from the north west of England.
The label's most famous release is early UK acid house anthem and Hacienda club classic A Guy Called Gerald - Voodoo Ray.
Rham's de facto in-house A&R and production team for most of its releases was Manchester ensemble Colin Thorpe also performed with A Guy Called Gerald on his Rham releases, and on the three song session recorded for BBC Radio One's John Peel Show in 1989. Chapter And The Verse subsequently released two albums influenced by soul, funk, jazz, hip hop and house, a melting pot of styles which preceded the acid jazz scene in the early 1990s.
The comic art Rham! logo was designed by Aidan Hughes of BRUTE!
The name for the label was inspired by the song "Hoots Mon" by Lord Rockingham's XI, then shortened to Rham.
