MAXX

Maxx was a German Eurodance act who had major, albeit brief, international success in 1994.

After having already recorded a German cover version of Snow's "Informer", rapper Boris Köhler teamed up with the Producer and Songwriter Juergen Wind, Frank Hassas ( Quickmix) , David Brunner ( Hitman )and Olaf Jeglitza ( only produced " get-a -way ") to produce "Get-A-Way". Boris, under the stage-name of Gary B, performed the ragamuffin rap and a female singer called Samira recorded the vocals for the chorus. It was a dancefloor hit all over Europe, peaking at #4 in the UK Singles Chart in June 1994. By this time, Samira had already left the act and was replaced by Linda Meek.

More similar hits "No More (I Can't Stand It)" and "You Can Get It" followed, as well as an album entitled "To The Maxximum", but their success was short-lived. "I Can Make You Feel Like" was a flop, and another new single released in 1995 called "Move Your Body" failed to chart.
