- electronic music group from Cambridge, England, composed of two members, Andy Cato (real name Andrew Cocup)[citation needed] and Tom Findlay. They first came to fame with a 1997 limited single release, "At The River", which sampled "Old Cape Cod" by Patti Page. The song has since been found on numerous chill out compilations.
One of their most popular works is their 2000 international hit "I See You Baby", remixed by Fatboy Slim in the Big Beat style, with the repeated chorus line "I see you baby....Shakin' that ass", as heard in Renault Mégane advertisements. Vocals were provided by Ibiza-based DJ Gram'Ma Funk. Incidentally, this track was also recorded with the chorus line "Shakin' that thang" for various conservative markets around the world, most notably the American South. In addition, some of their other tracks are often featured in television adverts or television promos including "If Everybody Looked The Same" in the 2001 Mercedez-Benz advert.
Their song "Hands of Time", starring folksinger Richie Havens, is featured in the movie Collateral, and is referred to by one of the characters as a "classic song." Another song, "Edge Hill" is featured in the movie Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, and has been used on Channel 4 promotional adverts for the hit series Lost. "Madder" is featured in the video game Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc as the game introduction. - Groove Armada @ Last.fm
