Following the release of “Honey” in April and last month’s “Broke My Heart,” Dan Snaith, aka Caribou, has returned with the video for new single “Volume.” The track is based on M|A|R|R|S‘ 1987 song “Pump Up The Volume,” a track that was a landmark in UK dance music.

Snaith explains about the single:

‘Pump up the Volume’ was the first time in my life I heard electronic music – sitting in front of the family stereo system listening to the top 40 countdown on the radio when i was a kid. it completely blew my mind – it sounded like something from another world. it’s stuck with me ever since – I always wanted to rework it in some way. I didn’t consciously think about it when I started working on my track but I think there’s something really special about having gone right back to the very beginning in making this.

Following the release of his single “Broke My Heart,” Snaith also shared an club version of the track “Broke My Heart (Champion Remix), as well as “Broke My Heart (Harry Hayes Remix)” which began as a fan-edit sent via Instagram and has now taken on a life of its own. Snaith also recently shared his Caribou remix of Ahadadream‘s summer smash “TAKA.”

Snaith put out a call out for impromptu pop-up parties which have been taking place around the world, and will continue throughout the summer. This includes a recent party in North Wales with Kelly Lee Owens, Koreless, and David Wrench and one in Berlin with Sofia Kourtesis and Ahadadream as well as Dublin, Manchester, Glasgow and Liverpool.

This November he will also embark on a US tour as part of a world tour encompassing Europe, the UK, and Japan. This November, he will also embark on a US tour.
