Party Animals are a pop- gabber group from the Netherlands. The band was created by producers Jeff Porter and Jeroen Flamman, along with vocalists MCs Remsy, Evert van Buschbach, Patrick de Moor, Dennis Adam, and Paul Grommé. They became the first act in the Netherlands to have their first three singles go straight to number one.
The Party Animals made their introduction on the video for the single " I Wanna Be a Hippy" by Technohead. The clip featured three gabbers and a hippie. The producers Flamman & Abraxas discovered the four and saw a potential for opening the mainly underground scene of gabber by making the sound more pop-oriented and thus introducing the new genre to a mainstream audience.
The first single was " Have You Ever Been Mellow" which samples Olivia Newton-John's " Have You Never Been Mellow" The lyrics still contain parts of the original song with "Never" replaced by "Ever". Released in September 1995, it took three months before becoming a number 1 hit.
The group disbanded in 2000 after considerable success in the Netherlands and a hit in Hong Kong with " Atomic".
They reformed in 2002 but disbanded again in 2005, because they were unable to revive their earlier success. They then reformed again in 2014, releasing Greatest Hits and Underground Anthems, which contained a new track titled "This Moment".
On 7 February 2016, Flamman & Abraxas posted several pictures of Suzanna Manger (the vocalist on "Have You Ever Been Mellow" and "Aquarius") on Facebook of her in the studio with the duo with the caption "Let's see if we can turn them into a new 2016 Party Animals track!"
