Mighty Dub Katz Biography
After commercially successful stints in the Housemartins and Beats International, Norman Cook moved on to a new moniker, Mighty Dub Katz. The founder and sole producer of this project, Cook debuted the single "Magic Carpet Ride" in 1995. Following the EP Cangica in 1996, the Dub Katz found some commercial success in Europe with "It's Just Another Groove" that same year. Distributed in the UK, Holland and eventually the United States in 1997, the single became very popular. Cook continued to build his discography that year with "Ghetto Girls" and a 1997 remix of "Magic Carpet Ride." ~ Mike DaRonco, All Music Guide
