Crazy P

Crazy P is an English electronic music group formed around 1995 by Chris Todd and Jim Baron. Working across deep house, electronica, indie soul, and nu disco, the project has been associated with club-focused dance music as well as song-based material that draws on soul and disco traditions.

Founded in the mid-1990s, Crazy P emerged during a period when UK electronic acts were increasingly blending house music with live instrumentation and vocal performance. Todd and Baron established the group’s core, and the name Crazy P became the primary identity for their releases and performances. The alias DisSoulve is also associated with the act.

Over time, Crazy P’s output has circulated through a range of independent dance and electronic labels. Imprints connected to house and disco-oriented scenes have been part of that trajectory, including 20/20 and 20 Vision Recordings, as well as Paper Recordings and Drop Music. This label history reflects the group’s placement within DJ culture and the broader electronic underground, where singles, remixes, and club releases often sit alongside more traditional artist projects.

Crazy P is generally linked with styles that sit between deep house and nu disco, with elements of electronica and indie soul also appearing in descriptions of their sound. That mix points to an approach that can accommodate both dancefloor utility and more melodic, band-like writing, a combination that has been a recurring feature of UK electronic groups since the 1990s.
