Producer and musician Ismael "Ish" Ledesma, and Progressive House artist Noel Sanger talk about the making and legacy of "Fascinated," originally recorded by Latin Freestyle trio Company B in 1986.

Born out of the ashes of "Disco Sucks" and a series of musical projects that included the bands Foxy and OXO, Ish created Company B as a vehicle for his wife Lori. A happy accident with "silly" lyrics, "Fascinated" is now a monster track that still fills the floors of clubs everywhere with versions that range from Latin to Hip-Hop and R&B.

Ms. Ralph and legendary musician Trevor Lawrence talk in-depth about how the song took shape, its classic status with the LGBTQ+ community, and how far we've come in terms of living our truth in the light.
