Technohead

Greater Than One is an English pop/techno/gabba band founded by husband and wife Lee Newman and Michael Wells in 1985. They released many albums under this name, and also under the names Tricky Disco, GTO, John + Julie, Church of Extacy, Signs of Chaos, T.D.5, Salami Brothers, Killout Squad, Technohead and L.E.D.. Only a few of their singles were commercially successful. Since Newman’s death on August 4, 1995 from cancer, Wells continues to release music under some of these names, and also as The Man and S.O.L.O.

1995: Technohead

Headsex contained their biggest hit, I Wanna Be a Hippy. It was accompanied by a video featuring three skinheads, wearing "Party Animal" t-shirts and carrying inflatable hammers, chasing a hippy on a bicycle around a park. It reached number 1 in 12 different countries including Germany, Netherlands, Belgium and Switzerland,[4] and number 6 in the UK in February 1996, hampered by an appearance on Top of the Pops where the words "stoned" and "marijuana" were censored. Two Technohead follow-up singles, less intense than the material on Headsex, followed in 1996; Happy Birthday reached number 18 in April and the next single Banana-na-na reached number 64 in October.[5]

Wells has recorded many singles and three more albums since, including two new Tricky Disco singles in February 2007.
