The epitome of indie-dance crossover?
It always surprises people to learn that 'Pump Up The Volume' was released on 4AD - home of Cocteau Twins, Pixies, Throwing Muses, The Wolfgang Press...
However, MARRS was basically two of their acts - Colourbox and AR Kane - coming together into what turned out to be a very successful, but ultimately unhappy, marriage.
To be honest this is more like a remix with the vocal samples removed than just the beats. However, it does strip the track back to the sleek, precision-tooled undercarriage and let's it build, giving the drums and that statuesque bassline the chance to take centre stage.

Been searching in vain for the FULL 6minutes+ version of the even better (imo) flip "ANITINA (THE FIRST TIME I SEE SHE DANCE)" by the AR Kane axis of M/A/R/R/S on mp3 format as the only ones I see is the edited 7" version.
ReplyDeleteThis version is on the reverse of the 12" with the cover as shown in your blog above.
