Kipper had his own band, One Nation. After releasing two albums with One Nation he joined the Gary Numan band playing guitar.
After realizing his own music was going in a similar direction as Kipper's previous work, Numan asked him to co-produce his 1992 LP Machine and Soul. The album was a mix of funk, rock and dance pop featuring guitar playing from Kipper. Kipper also contributed to Numan's 1994 album Sacrifice although to a much lesser extent.
Years later, Kipper helped produce and played keyboards on Sting's studio albums Brand New Day and Sacred Love. Both albums have been critically acclaimed and feature a modern fusion of jazz, rock, and electronic sounds.
