Rabbit In the Moon is a house music production trio known for their original productions, remixes and live DJ performances. Formed in Tampa, Florida, the act consists of frontman Bunny along with producers Monk (Steve McClure) and Confucius (David Christophere). Unlike many "faceless" dance music artists, Rabbit In the Moon gained notoriety for their frenetic live shows, with Bunny earning many comparisons to The Prodigy's Keith Flint.

After several singles released on Hallucination Recordings under the guise Anarch-E, their first success as producers came in 1993 with the release of the "Phases of an Out of Body Experience" single on Hardkiss Records. As remixers, Rabbit In the Moon has reworked songs by artists such as Tori Amos ("Precious Things"), Sarah McLachlan ("Fear", "Possession"), Orbital ("Are We Here?"), Smashing Pumpkins ("The End Is the Beginning Is the End"), Goldie ("Inner City Life"), White Zombie ("Blood, Milk and Sky"), and Delerium ("Euphoria").

Rabbit In the Moon has also collaborated with Humate and in 1994 they released the Hemispheres E.P. [1]

[edit] New Album

The Rabbit in the Moon Remixes Vol 2 CD came with a liner note stating that there was a new album to be released in summer of 2001. The album never materialized frustrating a number of the fans. The album was referred to as "soon" by many of bands close followers, as this was the only word one received if they inquired about the album.

Early in 2007 a countdown to the new album appeared on the bands myspace page, putting the release date in April of 2007. The album is to be called Decade, and will be out on the Southbeat Record Label [2]
