Real 2 Real

Reel 2 Real began as a House project of Erick Morillo and Ralphie "Boy" Muniz. Their first release under that name was "The New Anthem" (1992), released on the Strictly Rhythm label, which quickly became an underground hit. The following single, "Go On Move" (1993), featured the voice of rapper Mark Quashie, also known as Mad Stuntman, The. The strong reggae/dub influences of the record officially became their trademark. In 1994, "I Like To Move It" was released to a enthusiast crowd and became one of the most important dance hits of the 90's. The following singles "Can You Feel It?", "Raise Your Hands" (previously released as "Azuca" under the name R.A.W.), "Conway", and new commercial remixes of "Go On Move" confirmed the success of Reel 2 Real in the US and in Europe.
Ralphie "Boy" Muniz left Reel 2 Real after the success of the 1994 album "Move It!". A second opus was released in 1996 with Mad Stuntman, The as a full member of the group (the releases of that period no more credit him as a featured artist). The first single "Are You Ready For Some More?" was very Eurodance oriented. "Jazz It Up", first released as an instrumental by the Erick Morillo Project, featured the collaboration of Barbara Tucker and Charlotte Small while "Move Your Body (Mueve La Cadera)" featured the team of Proyecto Uno.
The Reel 2 Real alias was abandoned the same year, after which Morillo spent a few years establishing himself as an underground DJ.
