The Movement was a techno act from Los Angeles, California consisting of musicians AJ Mora (borned in Costa Rica, radicated on U.S.), Richard "Humpty" Vission with rapper/DJ/producer/dancer DJ Hazze, produced by Walter "Kandor" Kahn.

Their first single, released on Kahn's L.A.-based Sunshine record label was "Jump!" in 1992. The record reached number one on Billboard Magazine's Hot Dance Club Play chart. It also reached the top 10 on the magazine's Hot 12" Sales chart, crossed over to pop radio, hitting number 53 on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart, albeit with a re-working of the chorus ("Jump Motherfucker Jump!" which became "Jump Everybody Jump!"). Kahn signed a deal with Arista Records in New York to distribute the single and the subsequent album, which he also produced.

Kahn continued to produce and release artists on the Sunshine label, including Skee-Lo, whose rap single "I Wish" was hugely successful before jointly re-releasing the single on the Sunshine and Scotti Bros. label, along with Skee-Lo's first album, also produced by Kahn, which was nominated for a Grammy as Best Rap Album.

Vission continues to be a successful producer, remixer and DJ, and he had more dance and Hot 100 hits in 1998 as a member of Pure Sugar.
