Zki and Dobre are a house music duo from Haarlem, the Netherlands: Gaston Steenkist ("Dobre") and René Horst ("DJ Zki"). They have produced multiple dance hits under various group names since the early 1990s.

Under the name of The Good Men, their biggest hit was "Give It Up", a house music track based upon loud, samba-styled percussion and the simple, repeating vocal line of the song title. It hit #1 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart in 1993 and made a brief appearance on the Hot 100, peaking at #71. After being re-released in late 1993, it reached #5 in the UK Singles Chart.

In 2001 they returned to the dance chart under the artist names of Mechanical Soul Saloon, F-action, Chocolate Puma (with which they had a UK #6 hit with "I Wanna Be U"), Basco, DJ Manta, DJ Zki & Dobre, Fresh Tunes, Glenn Masters, Jark Prongo, Klatsch!, René Et Gaston, Rhythmkillaz, Riva, Stainless, and Tomba Vira.

In 1995 Simply Red sampled "Give It Up" for "Fairground", their UK Number One hit of that year.
