Biography

Planet Funk is an Italian electronic dance musical ensemble.

Members are Sergio Della Monica, Alex Neri, Domenico GG Canu, Marco Baroni, Alex Uhlmann and Alessandro Sommella (the Ghost extra member), in addition to a series of guest singers in collaboration, like Dan Black, Sally Doherty, Raiz and John Graham. Alex Uhlmann joined as the band’s latest lead singer in November 2010.

Their first single, “Chase the Sun”, reached number five on the UK Singles Chart in 2001.[1] The song has enjoyed a rise in popularity ever since Sky Sports began using it during its coverage of the Professional Darts Corporation’s major tournaments. The crowds in the venues are encouraged to chant and sing along to the song during the commercial breaks of matches, and the song has a cult following amongst darts fans. The song is also known to be chanted by supporters at the games of Australian football clubs Newcastle Jets and Adelaide United, as well as being the second half opening theme for the English Football League Championship team, Sheffield Wednesday. English Championship Football team, Watford F.C. also use the song for a goal song after they score a goal.[2] English Super League team Wigan Warriors are known to use the song following a successful drop-kick. The Melbourne spring racing carnival used the song during promotional TV advertisements during the mid to late 2000s.

    когда-то и у Радиохедов Крип был визитной карточкой, но потом его долгое время не играли в живую. а к чему это я? а, так неоднозначная же карточка. такому талантливому коллективу крайне неосмотрительно выезжать за счёт одного лишь Chase the Sun, который являлся саундом к паре фильмов/сериалов. Static, не менее удачная песня, была саундом к FIFA08, но, почему-то, не так популярна (вообще не популярна).
