U96 is a dance music project formed by German DJ and producer Alex Christensen and a team of producers called Matiz (Ingo Hauss, Helmut Hoikins, and Hajo Panarinfo), known for numerous 1990s Eurodance classics. The name of the project comes from the well-known movie Das Boot about the German submarine U 96 from the Second World War. The project's first hit Das Boot (1991) is a techno/dance-version of the film's title melody, which had been originally composed by Klaus Doldinger. Also an album of the same name was occasionally number one on the charts. This album smoothed the way for the commercial breakthrough of dance music in Germany. The next album, Replugged (1993), had an experimental sound, inspired by the Electropop of the 1980s and by Ambient and Disco music. Despite its unoriginality, it was commercially successful like the first album. The album produced a couple of Top10 hits such as Love Sees No Colour
