During the 1980s he also produced medleys under various names. In 1981 Wright created "Ain't No Stopping", a rapid response to the success of Stars on 45 consisting of parts of recent disco hits and taking its name from McFadden and Whitehead's "Ain't No Stoppin' Us Now" which began and ended the medley. Released under the group name Enigma, it reached number 11 in the UK singles chart and was followed by "I Love Music" which reached number 25. Through the 1980s Wright continued to produce medleys under other names including Mojo and Mirage. Under the latter name, he created the popular "Jack Mix" series of medleys which included the 1987 top ten hit singles "Jack Mix II" (#4) and "Jack Mix IV" (#8) and albums ''Jack Mix '88'' and ''Jack Mix in Full Effect'' (both #7). He continued to create medleys into the early 1990s, now under the name UK Mixmasters. Under this title he produced three UK hit singles, the biggest of these being "The Bare Necessities Megamix", which peaked at No. 14 in 1991.〔(Official UK Charts – UK Mixmasters )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nigel Wright (record producer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
