'''Spooky''' is a [[United Kingdom|British]] [[house music|house]]/[[techno]] duo consisting of Duncan Forbes and [[Charlie May]]. They debuted with ''Gargantuan'' in 1993 after signing to [[Guerilla Records]]. In 1995 and 1996 they released three EPs (''Clank'', ''Stereo'' and ''Shunt'') on their own Generic Records label, followed quickly in mid-1996 by their second album, ''Found Sound''. Two singles from this album were released: ''Fingerbobs'' and ''Bamboo''.
In [[1999]], Charlie May collaborated with [[Sasha (DJ)|Sasha]] on his ''[[Xpander]]'' EP, and in [[2002]] he co-produced some tracks on Sasha's ''[[Airdrawndagger]]'' album. The same year saw the release of ''Belong'', the first Spooky single on [[Deviant Records]], which Sasha later used on his mix album ''[[Involver]]''. A white label single, ''Andromeda'', was released in [[2003]]<ref>[http://www.progressive-sounds.com/Music-Reviews/Spooky-Andromeda.asp Music Reviews | Spooky Andromeda, [PS] Progressive-Sounds<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
A single entitled ''Strange Addiction'' was given a limited release in [[2005]] on Spooky's new self-owned label, ''spooky.uk.com''. "Strange Addiction" featured in a trailer for the critically acclaimed [[The Great Global Warming Swindle]] which broadcast on British analogue Channel [[Channel 4]] in March.<ref>[http://www.channel4.com/science/microsites/G/great_global_warming_swindle/trailer.html The Great Global Warming Swindle from Channel4.com<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> This was followed in September [[2006]] with the release of ''No Return'' as a download and promotional CD. Spooky later bought back the rights to their entire back catalogue from the 5 record companies that previously owned their music, which had all gone out of business.<ref>http://www.spooky.uk.com/final.swf</ref>
