Doop is a dance music production duo from the Netherlands formed by Ferry Ridderhof and Peter Garnefski, who have also recorded under the name Hocus Pocus and various other project names. They were producers and band members of Peplab.
Doop's 1994 single "Doop" reached No. 1 in the UK. The song was influenced by the 1920s Charleston dance, with lyrics consisting 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 released "Here's Johnny!", which reached No. 1 in Australia in 1995.
