Doop was best known for its eponymous single, "Doop", which reached No. 1 in the UK. The song was influenced by the 1920s Charleston dance and was most remembered for its lyrics, which consisted entirely of the word "doop" scatted over a fast-paced big band sample. In the US, a remix of the track by American house artist David Morales was released.

Under the name Hocus Pocus, the duo were best known for their single "Here's Johnny!", which reached No. 1 in Australia.
