Mixing raw, back-to-basics house with pop-friendly vocals and hooks, Crooked Man is one of the many aliases of maverick Sheffield, England-based DJ/producer Richard Barratt. Barratt first found fame in the mid-'80s as DJ Parrot, and a few years later he scored a Top Ten hit as one half of the duo Funky Worm. In the early '90s Barratt collaborated with Cabaret Voltaire's Richard H. Kirk as Sweet Exorcist, and later that decade he earned several more charting hits as part of the Sheffield collective All Seeing I. Barratt shifted to production in the 2000s and 2010s, working with Add N to (X), Richard Hawley, and Roisin Murphy, among others, but returned to making his own music in 2012, this time under the Crooked Man moniker. ~ Heather Phares
