United Kingdom (1997 – present)

Groove Armada is an electronic music group from Cambridge, United Kingdom, composed of two members, Andy Cato (real name Andrew Cocup) and Tom Findlay. They first came to fame with a 1997 limited single release, PlayAt The River (made famous after being used in various Marks & Spencer advertisements), which sampled “PlayOld Cape Cod” by Patti Page. The song has since made its way onto numerous chill-out compilations.

Their most famous work is the 2000 international hit I See You Baby, remixed by Fatboy Slim in the style — with the repeated chorus line “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” as a radio edit. While this is their most famous work, they have also produced less mainstream songs which are often featured in television adverts.

In the early part-of 2008 after parting company with Sony BMG, Groove Armada signed and “…all encompassing deal” with the Bacardi rum brand that allows them to use GA’s tracks for adverts.
