Critical reception


Alan Jones from Music Week wrote, "The most consistent Euro act of the past few years, Snap! are back with the oddly-titled Rame, an excellent song on which they venture into the ethnic dance arena inhabited by Deep Forest and Enigma. A throbbing dance beat overlaid with softer tones provide the backing to a wailing exotic female vocalist. A deserved hit."[1] James Hyman from the magazine's RM Dance Update rated it four out of five. He added, "Well-layered and exceedingly well-produced slice of Teutonic trance with Eastern wailing residing harmoniously over a fast bpm-ed backing and 'Moments in Love'-ish notes. The slomo version could practically pass as an 'Im Nin' Alu' for the Nineties and a mix from Resistance D toughens everything into dubby hard Euro-house. Already doing well around Europe, this deserves to succeed."[2]
