Bass Bumpers are a German DJ and record production team, known for their dance/techno music.[1] They are originally from Germany; with members: Henning Reith, Caba Kroll, CJ Stone, George Dee, Akira Yamamoto, and Reinhard "DJ Voodoo" Raith. They produced their own hits such as "Good Fun", "The Music's Got Me" (a number 36 hit on Billboard's Hot Dance Club Songs chart in 1992), "Move to the Rhythm" and "Rhythm Is A Dancer (2003)" with Snap!. Perhaps their biggest success was when they created Crazy Frog's remake of the popular hit "Axel F" from Beverly Hills Cop.[citation needed] This was a song credited to Crazy Frog, which peaked at number 1 in the UK on 31 May 2005.[citation needed]

In 1992, they also produced some songs for "Cadavrexquis" 's album of Amanda Lear.

Their own tracks, "The Music's Got Me" (1992)[1] and "Runnin'" (1993) were minor hits in the UK Singles Chart.[2]

In 2015, the group released "The Music's Got Me" with new mixes from North2South, La Chord, and Taito Tikaro.
