I was and still am a huge fan of many of the 90's dance acts. Acts like 2 unlimited and culture beat and Clock and Cappella and Urban cookie collective . Not to mention Ace of base and so on and so forth. Apart from 2 Unlimited who still tour with Ray and Anita the original members of the band a lot of these acts are touring the uk and Europe with different singers .
For example Urban Cookie collective used to be fronted by 3 men and a woman ,now the act is touring with just a woman and not the same woman from the 90's . Cappella are touring with a whole new line up which I believe is a man and wife due. Culture Beat also tour with a stand alone female singer different to the several different ones they had in the 90's.
Now none of these acts have had a hit single for many years and some don't even have a record label so who is behind them now??
Who hires the singers to tour the songs??/ Will there be management team behind them or do the original founders of the group just sell the rights to anyone who wants them??
There is a gig later this year in London with Cappella and Ucc but not with original line up so not going. but who arranges these acts to perform these days??

Tracks like Wanna get up and Never surrender
It wasn't 2 Unlimited really with Romy and Marjon [ the two female singers] but still a good album with lots of brilliant songs. " Edge of heaven" by the female duo is my fav 2 Unlimited single . The female version didn't work out and both left the group.
In 2009 Ray and Anita reunited and performed together again and in 2013 reunited with the original producer to work under the name 2 Unlimited once again.
The Vengaboys have always kept the same line up apart from the sailor who has been replaced twice.
