1997-2006·Southampton

Pete Devereux and Mark Hill were the production duo who carried garage out of the pirate stations and into the charts, largely on the strength of one 1999 record made with Southampton singer Craig David. "Re-Rewind (The Crowd Say Bo Selecta)" reached number two on the UK Singles Chart, taking the pirate radio crowd's "bo" approval shout with it into pop culture.
