Quando Quango was a Manchester, England based new wave dance project formed by The Haçienda DJ and Factory Records A&R man Mike Pickering, Hillegonda Rietveld and Reinier Rietveld. Their unique sound influenced the underground dance music scenes in New York and Chicago in the 1980s. Their first release was the "Go Exciting" twelve-inch single on Factory Records in 1982, and their last release of new music was the 1985 full-length album Pigs & Battleships (reissued in 2003). Quando Quango is best known for its dance singles "Love Tempo," which reached number four on the Billboard Dance Chart, and "Atom Rock." Their sound was the result of an eclectic mix of Latin, jazz, reggae and disco, all in a pioneering New Wave context. After the group's demise, Pickering went on to form dance duo T-Coy with Topping and, later, M People. ( source : wikipedia)
