The band's core producers, Chini and Pitch 92, have worked with over 85 musicians and vocalists, resulting in a diverse and eclectic sound.

The Mouse Outfit's debut album, Escape Music, released in 2013, brought them national prominence and won UK hip hop album of the year from Wordplay Magazine.

The band has also released a remix album in 2016 and their third album, Jagged Tooth Crook, in 2018.
