Originally released under the Internet Server 211 EP with legendary Dutch techno / gabber label DJAX-Up-Beats in 1999, Get Em is my ultimate DJ Skull classic Chigaco house jam and a go-to for ending a dj set in euphoric style. Plenty of DJ Skull classics employ this similar big room echoey pad synth design and curt, jaunting, swinging rhythm, but the stars align with a funky bassline on Get Em. It moves fast – you can hear it chugging like a locomotive on a proper soundsystem, even better when slowed down to a ~130 tempo. You can find a cleaned up digital master of Get Em as a rerelease on DJ Skull’s bandcamp page or the original vinyl release on Discogs.
