While the “Hamster Dance” song uses a sped-up sample of “Whistle-Stop” from the Disney movie Robin Hood, which was written and performed by Roger Miller, the actual “Hamster Dance” song was produced by The Boomtang Boys.
They re-recorded the “Whistle-Stop” sample (because Disney wouldn’t allow the original to be used) and added new lyrics. So, while Roger Miller’s song is the foundation, The Boomtang Boys are the ones who created “The Hamster Dance” song as we know it.
