Since 1999, they have continued where they left off. However, their music is slightly different, now creating more [[Left-Field House]] than the [[Acid House]] that dominated in their earlier productions. As producers, they have issued in stream of 12" released through the [[Kingsize]] label. With the addition of [[Steve Kotey]], the Chicken Lips became a trio, like the [[Bizarre Inc]] lineup was.
