ABOUT THE ALBUM

A 4CD Trip Through The UK's Dance Music Explosion Of The Late 1980s featuring The Klf, S-Express, Coldcut, Bomb The Bass, Orbital, Humanoid, Anne Clarke, 808 State, Adamski, Electribe 101, Nightmares On Wax, Baby Ford, The Moody Boys, Rick & Lisa And Many More. During the latter half of the 1980s, the burgeoning electro, house and techno scenes burst into the mainstream across Europe, turning countless bedroom beat makers into pop stars overnight and revolutionising the musical landscape. Building on synth pop's sound palette and industrial dance music's energy, and fuelled by enthusiastic independent labels, cash-only entrepreneurs and media hype around warehouse raves, the once underground sound of four to the floor rhythms, squelchy TB-303 lines and light-fingered samples quickly became the commercial mainstream. 'Burn It Up' captures a snapshot of that time and place, via fifty hand-picked floor- fillers. From #1 singles, household names and mainstays of suburban nightclubs to lesser- known curios and hip leftfield remixes, this is a story of renegade spirit, adventurous artists and a record buying public eager to embrace music unimaginable only a short while ago. Featuring Stakker's classic 'Humanoid', The KLF's legendary 'What Time Is Love', D-Mob's Billboard Dance Music Chart #1 'We Call It Acieeed', Orbital's 'Chime' masterpiece, Adamski's seminal 'N-R-G', contributions from members of Fine Young Cannibals, Soft Cell, ABC and many more familiar favourites, all surfing the sweet spot where credible and commercial meet, this is first generation joyous, hands in the air music. Produced by the team who brought you our 'Close To The Noise Floor' and 'Musik Music Musique' series, this is a must-have time capsule charting a genuine musical and cultural revolution.
