The Tamperer Featuring Maya - Overview

Overview

In 1998 they became famous for their debut single "Feel It", which peaked at #1 in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland in May of that year and was taken from their album Fabulous. "Feel it" was written by the American team of Steve Gittelman and Jim Dyke and relied heavily on a sample of the Jacksons hit "Can You Feel It".

The album spawned two more singles, "If You Buy This Record Your Life Will Be Better" (based on a sample from Madonna's "Material Girl"), and the Italy-only release "Step Out". The group returned in early 2000 to release their next (and final) single, "Hammer to the Heart" (based on ABBA's "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)"). This became a success also, where it became the group's third top ten hit in the UK.

The producers also used The Tamperer alias to produce and remix other artists, such as Crystal Waters.
