Unfinished Monkey Business is the debut solo album by Ian Brown released in February 1998 via Polydor Records.
 The album was self-financed and produced by Brown, and was his first album release since the break-up of The Stone Roses in October 1996.
 Ex-Roses members Mani, Nigel Ipinson, Aziz Ibrahim and Robbie Maddix helped pen and perform the instruments on many of the album's tracks.
 "Ice Cold Cube", which premiered at The Stone Roses final concert, was first released on this album.
Various, or Various Production, is an English dubstep/electronic music duo formed in 2002.
 The group blends samples, acoustic and electronic instrumentation, and singing from a revolving cast of vocalists.
 Its members, Adam and Ian, purposefully give very little information about the group or themselves, and tend to do little in the way of self-promotion.
 Nevertheless, the group began winning critical acclaim with its single releases in 2005 and 2006, with singers Rachel Thomas Davies and Nicola Kearey.
 Their full-length for XL, "The World is Gone", arrived in July 2006.
 They have released a large number of vinyl EPs and 7" records, as well as digital exclusives for Rough Trade, iTunes, and Boomkat.
 They have released remixes of a large variety of artists (sometimes uncredited) such as Thom Yorke, Adele, Virus Syndicate, Dave Cloud, Cat Power, Emma Pollock and Ian Brown and participated with one track on the Vexille Movie Soundtrack.
Dave McCracken is a British songwriter and music producer.
 He is well known for his production on Ian Brown from The Stone Roses solo albums, "Golden Greats", "Music of the Spheres" and "Solarized".
 He has also produced "Vantage Point" by dEUS, The Rifles' second album and programmed and played keyboards on "Playing the Angel" by Depeche Mode.
Stellify is the first single from Ian Brown's sixth solo album My Way.
 It was the first time that Brown "sort of consciously sat down and decided to write a love song".
 The song was released on 21 September 2009.
 In an interview with XFM Manchester he claimed that the song was originally written for Rihanna, for her upcoming studio album, but he realised he had created "a great sound" so claimed the track for himself.
Ian George Brown (born 20 February 1963) is an English musician.
 He is the lead singer of the alternative rock band the Stone Roses from their formation in 1983.
 Following the split he began a solo career, releasing six studio albums, a greatest hits compilation, a remix album and 17 singles.
 He has performed solo shows in 45 countries.
 He returned to singing for the Stone Roses on 19 October 2011.
 On 20 October, he put out a statement to say that although he had reunited with the band, it did not spell the end of his solo endeavours.
 Brown is also known for a cameo role in "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban".
Golden Greats is the second solo album released by Ian Brown, a first made famous by his role as frontman in The Stone Roses.
 Despite the title, the album is not a compilation, but rather, a studio album.
 It was described by "NME" as "a left-field masterpiece and Brown's best work for a decade", contains soaring sonic textures and electronic dance beats; it is less song-oriented than "Unfinished Monkey Business".
 "Golden Greats" showcases a diverse usage of instruments including strings, mellotron and organs.
 A number of the tracks on the album were written by Brown whilst he was imprisoned for two months following a fracas with a flight attendant.

"Can't See Me" is a song by Ian Brown.
 It was written by Brown and Mani and produced by Brown.
 The song was remixed by Bacon & Quarmby and released as the third single from Brown's debut solo album "Unfinished Monkey Business".
 It was released in June 1998, and rose to number 21 on the UK Singles Chart.
 The song's lyrics refer to an incident when Brown saw His former Stone Roses band-mate John Squire in a village in Hale, Greater Manchester, not long after the split of the band.
 According to this story, Brown waved to Squire, but Squire hid behind a newspaper and would not acknowledge him.
