CD Reviews

Most groundbreaking top 10 hit ever..

ralvarez43 | Melbourne, Australia | 12/05/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

"in 1989, MARRS released Pump Up The Volume, which became a massive hit around the world. It was also the first US / UK top 10 hit to be composed entirely of samples.
Many music writers consider that PUTV inalterably changed the face of pop music. Consider the fact that Rick Astley was one of the biggest artists in the world in 1989, and you will begin to appreciate the impact of this great single.
It is truly a dance music classic, as much a keynote in the history of dance music as Blue Monday by New Order or Autobahn by Kraftwerk.
I am always pleased to see the reactions of first time listeners to this song, most of whom find it difficult to believe that this was released in 1989, not 1999 or even more recently.The only negative thing I can say about this song is that it sort of paved the way for people like will smith to sample old songs to death without any originality at all, something MARRS definitely have not done with their masterpiece."

An OBSCURE-Disk Approved Release

M. D. Weiskopf | Los Angeles, CA USA | 04/19/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"M/A/R/R/S was a one-off collaboration between members of two UK experimental pop hotshots -- A.R. Kane (Rough Trade) and Colourbox (4AD). (The band's name represents the initials of its members.) "Pump Up The Volume" was, at its heart, a tape-collage of various other pioneering dance hits of the era: it liberally sampled likeminded tracks by Stock/Aitken/Waterman and Coldcut, stirring up mild controversy in the process. The track (a substantial success in the US as well) has since come to prominence as a genre-defining movie-soundtrack favorite, most recently in the dark '80s satire "American Psycho.""
