Party Animals

Energetic Eurodance Group

Party Animals is a Dutch music group that was formed in 1995. They are primarily known for their work in the happy hardcore genre, and they gained fame with their remix of the song "Have You Ever Been Mellow" by Olivia Newton-John. The group was initially a project of producers Flamman & Abraxas, who used various vocalists to front the act for performances and videos. Party Animals scored several hits in the Netherlands in the mid-1990s, with songs like "Hava Naquila" and "Aquarius," often featuring catchy hooks and energetic beats typical of happy hardcore music. Their success during this period made them one of the prominent acts in the Dutch dance scene. Over time, they have experienced changes in their lineup and shifts in their musical style, but they remain known for their contributions to the happy hardcore genre and their energetic live performances.
