Up & Down – The Party Album! is the debut studio album of Dutch dance group Vengaboys. It was released in the Benelux in April 1998 by Breakin' Records. Four singles were released off the album: "Parada de Tettas" and "To Brazil" in 1997, and "Up & Down" and "We Like to Party! (The Vengabus)" in 1998. Up & Down is notable in the Vengaboys catalogue for focusing almost entirely on instrumental trance and club songs. The album would be repackaged later that year as Greatest Hits! Part 1, replacing 8 of the tracks with 10 vocal euro dance songs. Greatest Hits! would be re-issued with slight variations in 1999 as The Party Album.
