Gettoblaster, “Get Dat” Stays True to House Music Roots

by The Freaks - Staff

Welcome to House and Techno Tuesdays, with Miss Jen at the helm. Part of the excitement of this weekly segment is all of the wonderful new music that is sent or recommended to me on a weekly basis. House music is my all-time favorite genre, perhaps it’s the danceability of it… I’ve just always gravitated to it. Typically, I to blend all the new releases and favorite tracks together into an article for you guys, but, this week is special. A familiar face came across my desk… one that has stuck with me since the beginning of my house music journey. I felt compelled to let Ghettoblaster stand alone. After all… We Jack.

Watching a true pioneer like Paul Anthony on the decks gets me grooving any time, and after witnessing the pairing of he and Zach Bletz as Gettoblaster at North Coast this past year, I am happy to see such a wonderful talent and legend continue to see accolades in house music across the board… house heads never had any doubt. After all, they swung through Indianapolis in 2014… complete with all my favorite midwest ‘s as support. It’s not every day you wake up to watch your inspirational DJ’s become legendary in real time.

Gettoblaster entered the house music scene in 2014 and has been a force to be reckoned with ever since. With house and techno roots, this hailing from Chicago and Detroit has a distinct style while protecting the true essence of house music. The artists’ most recent release on DIRTYBIRD Records stays true the Gettoblaster sound. The track, titled “Get Dat,” features crisp percussions and a robust bass-line.

In true Gettoblaster fashion, the lyrics are relentlessly unapologetic and pay homage to the original “four-on-the-floor” rule of house music. The repetitive words might inspire some while revolting others, but Gettoblaster has always had a knack for the provocative. As if we expected anything different, the new release is a banger and will have the floors riddled with booty shaking. Crank dat “Get Dat”, fam.
