Cotto Druaga & Snap - Rhythm is a Dancer (Summer 2k12 Bootleg)


Snap! is a German eurodance project formed in 1989 by Frankfurt-based producers Michael Münzing and Luca Anzilotti. The act has been through a number of line-up changes over the years, but was most successful when fronted by rapper Turbo B, who performed on the UK number 1 singles "The Power" and "Rhythm Is a Dancer".Michael Münzing and Luca Anzilotti formed Snap! in 1989 under the aliases Benito Benites and John "Virgo" Garrett III, as they thought that the public had negative preconceived ideas of German music.Their first hit "The Power", a combination of house and hip hop elements, contained a number of unauthorised samples, taking the drum loop from "King of the Beats" by Mantronix,the rap from "Let the Words Flow" by Chill Rob G and the classic line "I've got the power!" from "Love's Gonna Get You" by Jocelyn Brown. Their first album World Power reached #10 in the UK where it was certified Gold, #30 in the U.S. where it was also certified Gold, sold in excess of 7 million copies worldwide, and to this day remains one of the best-selling dance albums of all time. On Sunday 27 June 2010 Snap! performed at Glastonbury Festival, UK, in the WOW! tent. Original lead vocalist Penny Ford was joined by rapper Benjamin Lowe to do a 30mins Live PA show. Festival-goers flocked to see Snap! and numbers far outstretched the tent's capacity. Some were left disappointed when the famous rap 'I'm serious as cancer when I say rhythm is a dancer' was omitted from the track. The latest performance by Snap! was at Bamboo Club in Brasov - Romania on 24 December 2011.Listen song here:YouTube
