Five years on, Get Physical has grown and evolved into a one of the globe’s top dance labels. Professionalism and an unshakeable passion for music have fused the musical six-pack into one strong unit. Bolstered by their own enthusiasm, the surge of excitement for their nearly 80 releases has lost none of its slickly pumping momentum. Between the sound coordinates of Chicago House, Electro and the odd splinter of Disco Funk, framed and defined by the founders’ eclectic tastes, Get Physical soon developed its very own catchy, yet unique sound cocktail to flood the world’s dance floors with unlimited bliss.
Today, the Get Physical family comprises almost twenty artists - with a number of long-players in the works. In 2007, even more albums will leave the fold, without neglecting the label’s steady supply of 12“ to keep the dance floor busy. The mix series ‘Body Language’, exposing the skills and tastes of GP hosts DJ T. and M.A.N.D.Y. as well as cutting-edge mix prodigies like Jesse Rose or Dixon, paves the way for several new compilation concepts to explore new realms beyond the club.
For the latest highlight in Get Physical’s exciting evolution from ephemeral dream of six music lovers to one of the globe’s most exciting and diverse imprints, they release this 5th anniversary compilation. Besides eleven (tracks 14-24) new and exclusive tracks by in-house talents (DJ T., Booka Shade, M.A.N.D.Y., Heidi, Elektrochemie, Chelonis R. Jones, Jona, Samim etc.) the label asked a selection of highly respected producers to raid its back catalogue and remix some of Get Physical greatest hits – in a style that breaks the mould of the label.
The remixed results (tracks 1-13) reveal a broad and differentiated perspective of the various crossover spheres of (electronic) music. Remixes and reinterpretations by Hot Chip, Senor Coconut, Herbert, The Rapture, Moby, Earl Zinger, Henrik Schwarz, Sebastian Tellier, Padded Cell, Dexter, Fuiya & Miyagi, Larry Gold and Chris Clark not only bring some heavyweight names to the project, but impress with the care and inventiveness that has gone into treating the original tracks.
The anniversary is flanked by a European tour to celebrate these busy and eventful five years. A tour that will take the Get Physical DJs and live acts back to where it all began: the club!
A full body workout, indeed. To the next five years!
