Chili Hi Fly

Chili Hi Fly are a collective of singers, musicians and producers from Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, put together by Simon Lewicki (aka Groove Terminator) and Noel Burgess. Their disco-inspired track "Is It Love" (which featured samples from a 1980s Kool & the Gang song, "Be My Lady") went to number 1 on the US Billboard Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart in 2001.[1] The same track peaked at #37 in the UK Singles Chart in March 2000.[2]

In 2015, "Is It Love" was listed at number 30 in In the Mix's '100 Greatest Australian Dance Tracks of All Time' with Jody Macgregor saying "They warped and stuttered the original as if it had been altered by its travel through time, mutated into some new shape and then let loose to monster the dancefloors of the 21st century".[3]

They also had a follow-up, "It's Alright", peaking at number 22 on the U.S. Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart that same year.
