Harrison and Smith were both born in South London and began dabbling with music production whilst in school. They have been releasing music under various aliases since 1989 before switching to Moto Blanco in 2003 when they moved to mainstream production.[1] Harrison also gained success as one half of speed garage duo 187 Lockdown in the 1990s.
