After the demise of the Strikers in 1983, drummer Milton “Boe” Brown became the lead singer of Warp 9, initially a studio group on Prism Records that was part of the burgeoning electro scene in New York. When Boe left the group, Katherine Joyce and Chuck Wansley became the voices of Warp 9, while Lotti Golden and Richard Scher remained behind the scenes as the group’s songwriters and producers, and signed with Motown, where the group took a more soulful direction on “Fade In, Fade Out” (1986).
