Urban Cookie Collective
Urban Cookie Collective (German "Städtisches Kekskollektiv") (abbreviation: UCC) is a Eurodance project from Manchester , which celebrated some successes in the European single charts in 1993 and 1994.
Band history
Keyboardist Rohan Heath (born July 19, 1964), who wrote the lyrics and composed and produced the songs, was behind the project. Diane Charlemagne (* February 2, 1964; † October 28, 2015) took over the vocal part , who in 1994 also lent her voice to the EP Timeless by drum and bass musician Goldie .
Her greatest success was in 1993 with the first single The Key, the Secret , which was carried by a simple but catchy melody. In the wake of the 1990s wave of nostalgia rolling in England, a remix of this debut made it into the UK Top 40 again in 2005 .
For several years now, Danielle Barnett has fronted the Urban Cookie Collective.
