Chris and I are deeply saddened to learn that the producer and DJ, Peter Rauhofer, has died today. We were big fans of his remixes and worked with him in 2000 when, at his suggestion, we recorded a version of the house classic “Break 4 Love” under the name The Collaboration. The record went to number one in the Billboard Dance Chart in the USA. Only recently we asked our manager to approach him about remixing one of the tracks from our new “Electric” album. Peter will be missed so much by dance music fans all over the world and we send our sincere condolences to his mother and family and all his friends. Neil x
