I saw them live in Vancouver years ago. Good show. This an exerpt from Wikipedia's entry on them:<BR/><BR/><I>After touring for their hit album, Will White fell ill. They released Extended Play EP in 1998, and in the song "Props' Vote Of Gratitude", Alex Gifford raps for the first time, explaining to the attentive listener that the band would "be back after this short break". Things subsequently went quiet in the Propellerheads camp. Alex moved to New York and produced the Jungle Brothers 1999 Album V.I.P. In which he raps alongside The Black Eyed Peas among others and Will White provides the drums for the eponymous track. He has also produced a track for Rufus Wainwright ("Shadows") on his 2001 album Poses. White has since released a mix compilation for the Beatz and Bobz series, and he has also appeared as a member of the De-Fex music project.<BR/><BR/>In October 2003 Wall of Sound commemorated its 10th birthday, and to celebrate, released a two disc album charting 10 years of its pioneering British music. The first CD featured alumni such as Röyksopp, The Wiseguys and Mekon, while Gifford provided a mix CD for the second disc. Surprisingly the first track on that disc was a new song by Propellerheads featuring British rapper Livingroom Johnston, entitled "10 Years", a cool, laid back funky tune with a catchy riff, that might give an indication about the Propellerheads' forthcoming album.<BR/><BR/>Gifford and White have reportedly been close to finishing "that difficult second album" for a while now, but have scrapped material they did not believe was fresh or new enough to warrant release. Their next album will apparently feature duets from Rufus Wainwright and k.d. lang among others, but WoS has no projected release date.<BR/><BR/>Their song "Take California" was the first song ever used in an Apple iPod television ad.</I><BR/><BR/>Duets? Hmmm... not liking the sound of that.Magnushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08741378159534413277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12347845.post-1152283190242069322006-07-07T08:39:00.000-06:002006-07-07T08:39:00.000-06:00I don't know.
