Originally formed by the Frankfurt based duo Michael Münzing and Luca Anzilotti in 1986, Snap! has since transformed into a collective of dance-rooted, hip-hop influenced singers and rappers. The project’s debut output was the single “Where Are You?” in 1986, followed a year later by the independently released full-length “Inaxycvgtgb”. With members Anzilotti and Münzing using less German sounding aliases, Benito Benites and John "Virgo" Garrett III, Snap! earned their breakthrough in 1990 with the hit “The Power”. Featuring British-born rapper Turbo B. and American singer, Penny Ford, “The Power” combined hard-hitting house with elemental hip hop, and earned huge success, peaking at No. 2 in Germany. The single topped the charts in the UK, peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100, and catapulted Snap! to international recognition. Penny Ford subsequently became the group’s full-time singer, later contributing the lyrics to Snap!’s second single “Ooops Up”. The singles “Cult of Snap” and “Mary Had a Little Lamb” followed before the group issued its first official studio album “World Power” in 1990. Peaking at No. 7 on the German Albums Chart, the record gained international success for its club-friendly appeal.
The singer Thea Austin joined Snap!’s ranks in 1991, leading the recordings of the hit singles “Rhythm Is a Dancer” and “Colour of Love”. Featuring hip hop beats and rhythms combined with electro sensibilities, both singles were taken from the group’s sophomore album “The Madman’s Return”, released in March 1992. Snap!’s third full-length “Welcome to Tomorrow”, this time featuring the vocal talents of American singer Summer, was issued in September 1994. Reaching the Top 10 in both Germany and Switzerland, the album earned positive reviews aided by the singles “Welcome to Tomorrow (Are You Ready?)”, “The First the Last Eternity (Till the End)”, and “The World in My Hands”.
Snap! officially disbanded in 1996 and with the separation brought the compilation album “Snap! Attack: The Best of Snap” the same year. Four years later Münzing and Anzilotti, once again with rapper Turbo B, returned to release the track “Gimme a Thrill”, followed in 2003 by the remix album “The Cult of Snap!”.
When two already fantastic producers combine their efforts into a project, the result is likely to be a success, and for Snap!, the German Eurodance project, this can definitely be said! Producers Michael Munzing and Luca Anzilotti compiled a group of talented musicians to create some hit tracks, for example The Power and Rhythm Is A Dancer.
Although the band went through several line up changes, and eventually disbanded, their work together created some giant hits, and their return concerts drew in the crowds from far and wide. Performing Rhythm Is A Dancer appeared to be the band’s highlight of the show, as it was also for the audience. Of course everyone knew the lyrics start to finish, who doesn’t! The band got everyone on their feet with their arms in the air, and by the end of the track, the auditorium was filled with jumping fans going crazy for the epic track.
They played some of their lesser known tracks, but the audience still got really into them. The combination of rapping, electronic and pop music was an exciting one, and the band bounced off of each other and the audience with banter to maintain their intense energy. It was a fantastic nostalgic gig, with a whole lot of talent form the artists.
