Unique 3's iconic 'Soundyard' Club, every Sunday night, was a night to behold. Coaches from the Midlands, London, North East and Scotland were common sights outside the venue. The Reggae Sound System scene, of a previous age and handed down to the new breed, helped to gel a mix of 80's Funk, Hip-Hop & Early House into a night of high energy celebrations & in the round dance offs. This club was about the music. There was no club scene yet and drugs had not yet taken hold of the dancefloor completely. Sadly, we'll never see this kind of night (a pure celebration of 'The Funk') ever again I'm afraid ...

Unique 3 has been cited by such luminaries as The Chemical Brothers, Coldcut, Goldie & LFO as inspiration, Unique 3’s early 80’s ’Bleep House’ creating the start point for House Music as we know it today & the thousands of House Records that followed & imitated it.
Unique 3s groundbreaking early UK Hip-Hop bridged the gap from US Hip-Hop into a vibrant new sound that was to change music forever: 'Activity' by Unique 3 was the first dance track to sample the AMEN break & went on to become one of the most sampled records ever whilst being cited as one of the very few original ’break-beat’ tracks which later spawned ’Jungle’ then ’Drum & Bass’ & paved the way for Nu-Skool Breaks.
The inclusion of Unique 3's - 'The Theme' on both The Chemical Brothersalbum of tracks that inspired them to make music: 'Brothers Gonna Work It Out' & on Warp Records collection of early House tracks that inspired them to set up their world famous label, an album aptly titled:'Inspirations', stands testament to this. - Virgin/10 Records Press Department
Unique 3 were recently reminded of their major role in the creation of earlyHouse Music scene when 'The Theme' was voted the number 1 track played at the The Hacienda in the ’90s, voted number one by the world famous Deejay team who played there!
Unique 3 broke the national top 20 with their left-field UK Hip-Hop track- 'Musical Melody' (not an easy feat back then) & enjoyed 4 top 5 club chart hits & 2 club no.1’s.
Unique 3s Deejay sets are legendary, switching from jackin electro house to breaks to rollin drum & bass.
