==Biography==
Fraser became known as Mad Professor as a boy due to his fascination with electronics. He emigrated from Guyana to London at the age of 13 and later began his music career as a service technician. He gradually collected recording and mixing equipment and in 1979 opened his own four-track recording studio, Ariwa Sounds, in the living room of his home in Thornton Heath.〔Larkin, Colin (1998) ''The Virgin Encyclopedia of Reggae'', Virgin Books, ISBN 0-7535-0242-9, p.13-14〕 He began recording lovers rock bands and vocalists for his own label (including the debut recording by Deborahe Glasgow) and recorded his first album after moving the studio to a new location in Peckham in 1982, equipped with an eight-track setup, later expanding to sixteen.〔 Fraser's ''Dub Me Crazy'' series of albums won the support of John Peel, who regularly aired tracks from the albums.〔 Although early releases were not big sellers among reggae buyers, the mid-1980s saw this change with releases from Sandra Cross (''Country Life''), Johnny Clarke, Peter Culture, Pato Banton, and Macka B (''Sign of the Times'').〔 Fraser moved again, this time to South Norwood, where he set up what was the largest black-owned studio complex in the UK, where he recorded successful lovers rock tracks by Cross, John McLean, and Kofi, and attracted Jamaican artists including Bob Andy and Faybiene Miranda.〔 He teamed up with Lee "Scratch" Perry for the first time in 1983 for the recording of the album ''Mystic Warrior'' (1989).〔Huey, Steve "(Mad Professor Biography )", Allmusic, Macrovision Corporation〕
