After acquiring the catalogue of legendary Canadian house label Definitive Recordings earlier in the year, Get Physical Music is proud to present a new various artists series that focuses on some of its most classic cuts. Definitive Classics #001 features newly remastered music from Blunted Dummies, John Acquaviva, Chuck Phulasole and Jetstream.

This cult Canadian label was founded by John Acquaviva, Richard Hawtin, and Karl Kowalski in 1992 as an embodiment of their vision for house music. "Not too hard, not too soft" was the mantra and it built up a fine body of talented artists who made a real impact on the global underground and helped to foment a unique identity for Definitive Recordings. John Acquaviva will continue to A&R for the label and work closely alongside the Get Physical team in this new era. The label's signature sound is showcased here with the first fantastic EP in the new series.

First up is Shawn Caesar and Ty James aka Blunted Dummies' 'House For All' which became an anthem soon after its 1993 release. It's a John Acquaviva edit presented here and is a brilliant raw and deep cut with chunky drums offset by light-emitting chords and a hooky vocal sample that brings a playful touch.

Chuck Phulasole is the pseudonym of Toronto based soul & funk artist John James. He became a mainstay of the label with this house focused project and here his 'Wanna Be With You' sounds as good as ever. It's a jazzed-up and loose-limbed house cut with plenty of US soul, dusty drums and a heart-wrenching vocal over a funky, knotted bassline that cannot fail to make a mark.

Last of all is Jetstream's 'Seriously' which was the first-ever release on the label and the only ever tune that Karl E. Kowalski put out under the alias. It's a superb one, though, that hits hard with driving grooves overlaid with smeared chords. The power of the drums is matched by loopy piano refrains that provide and irresistible emotional release.

This series shines a vital light on what has been a hugely influential label in the history of house music.

Hannah Holland joins the SMiiLE family with a pulsing, club-ready remix of D Stone’s Resonant Dreams. A key figure in London’s alternative and queer club scene since the mid-2000s, Holland brings her signature electro-tinged techno to Daan’s EP with striking contrast and synergy. The result is a high-impact rework built for peak-time play. A powerful tool for selectors, and a standout moment in any set.

Artist: Fasika
Track:  Amp'd Up
Release Title:  House Rules EP
Label: Bona Fide House Records
Release Date: - 18-Jul-25
Support: https://www.beatport.com/release/house-rules/5141918

Emerging from the pulse of D.C.’s underground, Fasika delivers a stripped-back yet infectious statement with the House Rules EP, due July 18, 2025 via Bona Fide House Records. Across four tightly coiled tracks, the EP channels the raw physicality of classic East Coast House with a distinct swagger, nodding to the bumpy rhythms and dancefloor kinetics that define Fasika’s growing footprint.

The title cut, House Rules, appears in two forms: the Original Mix leans into syncopated percussion and stabbed basslines, perfect for peak-time pressure, while the Basement Mix dials things down with a deeper, sweat-soaked groove that speaks to late-night heads. On B-Boy Cypher, Fasika taps into a swing-heavy template that feels tailor-made for crate diggers and body movers alike, funk-infused yet minimal, with crisp, no-nonsense drum programming. Closing track Amp’d Up is all tension and release, built around stuttering hi-hats and rugged low-end organ work.

True to its title, House Rules EP plays by its own code, minimal in construction, maximal in effect. It’s a confident outing from an artist rooted in the local scene but pushing beyond, offering DJs and dancers alike a functional yet characterful take on House Music.
