Cappella is an Italian Eurodance music project formed in 1987 by producer Gianfranco Bortolotti and prominently active into the mid-1990s. The group saw a revolving door of frontmen and vocalists but consistently remained at the forefront of the European dance music scene with their energetic beats and catchy melodies. Their breakthrough came with the 1993 hit "U Got 2 Know," which was based on an interpolation of Siouxsie and the Banshees' song "Happy House." The track was a massive success, leading to a series of hits including "Move On Baby" and "U & Me," which helped define the Eurodance genre.

Through the years, Cappella underwent numerous changes in their line-up and style, but maintained a loyal fanbase by regularly revisiting and remixing their classic hits. Despite the ebb and flow of the dance music scene, tracks like "U Got 2 Know" and "Move On Baby" have been kept alive through various remixes by artists such as Luca Guerrieri, Mike Candys, and Armand Van Helden. The project's resilience speaks to the lasting appeal of their music, which continues to energize dance floors with a blend of nostalgic charm and contemporary production. Their recent releases such as "U Got 2 Know '23 (Visnadi Remix)" and "Greatest Hits & Remixes" pay homage to their legacy while refreshing their sound for a new generation of listeners.
