Rated 5/5
Review by maroko Sep 13, 2008
Speedy J's Pullover was one of my first, if not the first, contacts with electronic music.
To this day it remains his biggest commercial success and club hit, though he's made quite a few of those down the line.
Interesting thing is that Pullover is perhaps the simplest piece of music Jochem Paap has ever churned out. Not that I intend it to sound like a bad thing, but it's the same instantly recognizible siren-like hook layed over a moderate kick for six minutes. It has that irresistible hands in the air while dispersing good vibes all over touch written across it.
Out of the two remixes, I prefer the second one, which has the identical hook, but leans over to the harder realms, due to an overall much more macabre atmosphere and harder kick drum.
Simple, yet extremely effective, unforgettable and very fun to dance to, Pullover remains the ultimate old school calling card for the rave crowd, despite sounding dated when measured against Speedy J's later work.
Testimonies of the era state that it drove people up and down the wall on an every weekend basis!
