L.A. Mix were a British group composed of DMC mixer and club DJ Les Adams (29 November 1955 – 2 September 2019), his production partner and wife Emma Freilich and multi-instrumentalist Mike Stevens. All of the group's seven singles charted on the UK Singles Chart. Biography L.A. Mix consisted of then husband-and-wife team Les Adams and Emma Freilich, and Mike Stevens. Their first hit was in 1987, "Don't Stop (Jammin')", which was based on a simple 8-track demo that Adams had formed in his home studio, and made No. 47 on the UK Singles Chart. That record got L.A. Mix in trouble, as the bassline had been taken from the song "Love Is the Message", resulting in Vincent Montana Jr. attempting to take an injunction out on the group. The record deal was initially only for one single, but then Adams remixed Maurice Joshua's "This Is Acid" by taking the vocals, adding a synth lead from Black Riot's "A Day in the Life", using the rhythm synth from Inner City's "Big Fun", sirens from some of Todd Terry's records and some assorted sexual screams of unknown origin from his collection, and as a result the record went to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Dance/Club Songs chart. Thus, the record label decided to release another single. That single was "Check This Out", which reached No. 6 in the UK in 1988 and was their biggest hit. That also raised legal ire, this time of the then-owner of Easy Street Records as the song included a short sample of "You Don't Know" by Serious Intention, and the owner of that label was one of New York's top lawyers. The matter was settled out of court for $15,000. It is not to be confused by a Hardhouse song of the same name, also released in 1988. Next, in 1989 they released "Get Loose", which featured rapping by Pauline Bennett (under her stage name Jazzi P) and charted at #25 after they had been diagnosed by the songwriting team of Stock, Aitken and Waterman as being "unlikely to have another hit". A fourth single, also released in 1989, "Love Together" featuring Kevin Henry, charted at #66. These four singles were aggregated on the album On the Side, which was released in 1989. In 1990, the first of three singles from L.A. Mix's second album was released. "Coming Back for More", also the title
