Bocca Juniors was a collaborative project uniting four influential producers—Andrew Weatherall, Terry Farley, Pete Heller, and Hugo Nicolson—under the Boy's Own Recordings banner. The group crafted a distinctive balearic-influenced sound that merged dance music sensibilities with anthemic production, releasing two standout singles that captured the euphoric spirit of early '90s electronic music.
The project's output, though brief, left a notable mark on the era. "Raise (63 Steps To Heaven)" (1990) and "Substance" (1991) both showcased the group's collaborative vision, featuring the distinctive vocals of Anna Haigh. These tracks exemplified the balearic anthem aesthetic the producers were pursuing—expansive, emotionally resonant dance music that prioritized atmosphere and groove. While Bocca Juniors remained short-lived, it represented an important moment of creative convergence among key figures in the UK's dance music underground.
