They signed in 1988 worldwide with Phonogram Records GmbH (Mercury Records)[3][4] in Germany. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, K.I.D. had several chart successes with tracks such as "The Phonecall", and "Backfield in Motion"[5] in Western Europe, in particular Germany and Switzerland. Most of K.I.D.'s music was recorded and produced at Sigma Sound Studios[6] in New York City, working with the audio engineer and record producer Tony Maserati.[7]
