Jonathan Bogart: Thank God for old-fashioned electronic craftsmen who wouldn’t know a dubstep drop if it bit them on the ass.

Anthony Easton: That sonorous underpinning — more industrial than musical — that grounds the track starting at around 2:19 is really interesting; I want to hear more of that. Also, perhaps whistles.

Alfred Soto: I last heard Groove Armada overhauling a Bryan Ferry number into something approaching sleaze, and if the boys had kept this instrumental I might have praised it in those terms too.

Will Adams: The background bleeps and flecks of white noise will try to convince you that there’s something interesting happening here, but don’t be fooled; that two-note bassline is here to stay for the better half of “Pull Up”‘s six-minute runtime. Discordant, repetitive, and numbing in all the ways that house shouldn’t be.

Brad Shoup: Putting Slarta John on the track is a bit like getting Terry Crews to advertise your body wash: he may have fun, but your crap’s not going to get any cooler. Not that the MC can be compared to Mr. Crews with a straight face; he’s not make-up-for-“Last Stand (For England)“-good, just good enough. GA rides a two-note riff into the ground: drop your needle anywhere and it’s boring.

Edward Okulicz: Groove Armada have a surprisingly decent-sized batch of kind-of-OK songs, of which this almost is one. Except, bless, they’ve gone and released all the dicking around they do in the studio while writing their album as a stand-alone track. Easy mistake to make, right?
