Doop (band)

Doop was a dance music production act from the Netherlands formed by Ferry Ridderhof and Peter Garnefski, who would later record under the name Hocus Pocus.

Doop were best known for their eponymous single, "Doop", which reached No. 1 in the UK. The song was influenced by the 1920s dance, the Charleston, and is most remembered for its lyrics, which consisted entirely of the word 'Doop' sung over a fast-paced big band sample.

Hocus Pocus were best known for their single, "Here's Johnny", which reached No. 1 in Australia.
