Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Miss Kittin's Requiem for a Hit are quite provocative and controversial, and they reflect the darker side of electronic dance music. The repetition of the phrase "I beat that bitch with a hit" seems to glorify the use of drugs as a means of achieving a high, and also hints at the physical abuse that is present in the music industry. Some listeners interpret the phrase as a metaphor for being physically beaten by the pounding beats of a techno track, while others see it as a literal reference to domestic violence or drug-related violence.


The lyrics also suggest a request to the sound engineer, asking them to manipulate the sound in a way that will enhance the experience of taking drugs. The lines "Compress me or undress me/Equalize me, finalize me" depict a desire to fully immerse oneself in the experience of electronic music, while "Pump me, pimp and untie me" could be interpreted as a call to let go of inhibitions and fully surrender to the music. The repeated phrase "beat this bitch with a hit" is a call to action, urging the sound engineer to create a track that will deliver the ultimate high.


In summary, Miss Kittin's Requiem for a Hit is a dark and gritty commentary on the underbelly of electronic dance music. The lyrics glorify drug use, hint at violence and abuse, and portray a desire to fully immerse oneself in the music.

I remember buying her CD because I heard this track during a 2004 Radio1 Breezeblock mix. The 1:55 segment is what they played.

Martin Haney

late night Breezeblock BBC Radio 1. That was Annie Mac, yeah? good times

Ash G

@Martin Haney Breezeblock was so good. I used to record her shows on 90min cassette tapes.

There was another show I also liked but I only remember the song title he used in the intro "Gothan Project - Santa Maria." It was a trippy hippy show.

Tugay Senal

Yeah baby! Classic of Miss Kitten 🎉
