For us, it feels like yesterday, but it was nearly a decade ago that Dakar dropped the summer anthem, ‘I’ve Got That Feeling’ on Get Physical Music. Back in summer of ’08, the original took floors by storm and proved its potential, now we ready for another round with four new perspectives. All the usual suspects are on board, Siopis, Adapter, Dance Spirit and Dakar’s own ‘2017 Edit’. Siopis takes on the track first, delivering a delightful tech house shuffle while utilizing the vocals in a straightforward fashion. Dance Spirit first build a landscape of organic percussion as the music slowly follows .The duo here take a rather reserved approach, opting for vocal accents and an airy ambience. On the other side of the spectrum, Adapter, whose remix gives the track a healthy dose of energy. By combining a floor stomping kick, pushing the tempo up, and giving a gritty ambience, Adapter has given the track a completely new meaning – turning the track into a heavy, peak-time floor-mover. Last but not least, if Dakar’s own 2017 edit. He’s given the track more depth and strengthened the bubbly groove, lending the track a fresh breath of life for another decade of sunshine and smiles.

A lot has happened in the last 20 years of dance music, but one constant has been Get Physical right at the sharp end of the scene. The label has become a globally recognised symbol of quality, renowned for its always varied and vital house output. Forming the backbone of the label's vast catalogue is the influential in-house DJ mix series, Body Language. It is a snapshot of exactly where the underground is at and has been assembled by tastemakers such as Azari & III, Catz ‘N Dogz, Dixon, DJ Hell, Francesco Tristano, Nôze and of course label-founders Booka Shade, DJ T., and M.A.N.D.Y..

Next to that there has been a constant stream of innovative, dance-floor ready singles, crossover club classics, seminal remixes and a number of standout artist albums. The label has always stayed true to its house roots, but with a rich array of influences taken from the worlds of disco, deep, tech and melodic house. Along the way, Get Physical´s core artists have been joined by red hot new talents including Alinka, Thandi Draai, PAUZA, Yulia Niko, Birds Of Mind, CIOZ and Monkey Safari. There have also been carefully considered forays into thriving house music scenes in Africa, Brazil, Cuba, Croatia and India: dedicated compilations and EPs have highlighted those region's most exciting new talents and given them a global platform. 

The name says it all: Get Physical tracks could hardly be more moving and corporeal. It was true in 2002, and it will be true in 2025 and beyond.
