Obscure early 90's indie dance band from UK. They released one great single, balearic classic ''Feel Me Out'' in 1991, remixed by Steve Proctor (track 01) & Pascal Gabriel (tracks 02 & 03).
They recorded follow up single ''Straight To The Heart'', also remixed by Steve Proctor and album called ''The Move, The Groove In The World'' but they were never officially released.
If anyone have some of this unreleased material, it will be great.

Sensation - Burger Habit

SENSATION
Burger Habit
1993 One Little Indian

Notes :
After Soul Family Sensation's debut album failed to cross into the charts, singer Jhelisa left the band to work with The Shamen. Jonny Male and Guy Batson decided to shorten the band name to Sensation. In 1993, their album "Burger Habit" was released to critical acclaim, the single "Beautiful Morning", being nominated for single of the week in several publications.

Between 1993 and 1995, Jonny and Guy recorded a second Sensation album "Yesterday Things Got Worse", which was thought to be lost until its rediscovery and release in 2000.

Jonny went on to be involved in many other bands and projects, including Airstream (where he played alongside Martin Duffy from Primal Scream), songwriting with friends like Saint Etienne ("Hug My Soul"), material with Sarah Cracknell for her solo album, music with Sub Sub (now Doves) and Denim.

Jonny became a permanent member of Republica in 1996, co-writing the worldwide hit "Ready To Go". In 1999 he formed a new band, Cheapglue.
