-
The Manhattan Clique are producers, remixers and writers Philip Larsen and Chris Smith. Regular visitors to the higher reaches of the Music Week Club and Pop charts in the UK, plus the Billboard dance chart in the US, Manhattan Clique are equally at home with their more underground MHC guise as with their classic Manhattan Clique moniker. Their remixes receive regular support on BBC Radio 1's 'Ready For The Weekend' as well as enjoy playlistings at Kiss, Capital and many other regional stations across the UK, Europe and the US.
The duo repeatedly work with the biggest UK and international names in pop including Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Timbaland, Nicole Scherzinger, La Roux, Britney Spears, The Veronicas, The Saturdays, Keri Hilson, Esmee Denters and Toni Braxton. 2010-11 remixes have included Chris Brown, Diana Vickers, Example, Nelly Furtado, Ed Drewett, Katy Perry (four times), Fenech-Soler, Lady Gaga and many more. Manhattan Clique are currently also in the studio working on tracks for their debut album which will be released in 2011.
Manhattan Clique have also worked with some of the biggest artists in Europe - namely French megastar Mylene Farmer, whose duet with Moby 'Slipping Away' was Manhattan Clique's first Number One production, as well as Moby's first Number One single anywhere in the world, spending several weeks at the top of the French charts in 2006. They have also DJ'd across four continents.
Manhattan Clique are unrivalled in their work with pioneering electronic acts, including Human League, [[]]Soft Cell, The B-52's and Erasure. They co-wrote and produced Erasure frontman Andy Bell's "Electric Blue" album, which also featured Jake Shears (Scissor Sisters) and Claudia Brücken (Propaganda). Larsen has additionally won a Grammy award for his production on Kylie Minogue's "Come Into My World", a track from her multi platinum album "Fever", and is also one half of über-kool trance outfit M-Box.
