Following the demise of their previous band, the Cuban Boys (famous for their Hamster Dance record and John Peel sessions), McLaren and Autobahn released the album Living In Neon on Ninthwave Records in the USA . This was followed in 2003 by the extended single "I Am Gothic". A new album, Children of a Laser God was released online in 2006, along with the single " Run With Us ", a cover of the theme tune of the popular 1980's cartoon The Raccoons with the Michael Trenfield remix as the main single accompanied with the original version and remixes from JKZ, Absorb, FMU and Diskowarp. After a hiatus, the duo returned in 2010 with the single 'Everything's Better With Muppets', accompanied by a popular YouTube video containing excerpts from The Muppet Show lipsynching with the song.
Amongst other projects, Spray have been partially responsible for Glen Campbell 's 2002 return to the top of the charts with the "Rhinestone Cowboy" remake, top 40 kids band the Barndance Boys , and the European hit "The Woah Song" by DJ Daz. McLaren has a successful sideline in vocalising club/dance records, and Autobahn in soundtracks and commercials. The band has also had one of their singles, "I Am Gothic," appear in the Xbox game Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix 3.
In 2006 Autobahn co-wrote and produced the UK 's Eurovision entry, " Teenage Life ", with his long-term collaborator Daz Sampson .
