Sharam celebrates 15th Anniversary of ‘Get Wild’ on his Yoshitoshi label

It’s very much a time for milestones at Yoshitoshi and label boss, Sharam. Following on from his recent 25th-anniversary update of Eddie Amador’s seminal ‘House Music’, the renowned DJ and producer now turns full auteur to provide a remix of his own ‘Get Wild’ as it too marks a birthday; albeit in this case, a slightly younger 15!

‘Get Wild’ was the lead single from Sharam’s first solo album of the same name that went on to global success that went beyond his expectations. “I‘ve got a lot to thank ‘Get Wild’ for,” he explains, “I went into the studio with the intention of just doing one track, but as a lead single it led me down a creative rabbit hole and before I knew it a whole concept album was born off the back of it. This ‘1.5 remix’ is my contemporary way of saying a big, musical thank you.”

So, ignoring any self-imposed pressure, although keen to ensure the update did the original justice, Sharam returned to his mixing desk inspired with the very best intentions and the result is there for all to hear. He once again pulls off a magic balancing act, integrating Mario Vazquez’s memorable vocal with a little bit of everything from tech to techno with roaring Reese drops that’s become synonymous with his productions. “The original was huge when it came out and was played by all types of DJs, so I wanted to build on that with something equally universal to reintroduce the record to a new generation of music enthusiasts. It’s quite raw and gritty. That’s where my head is at right now”

Re-presenting ‘Get Wild’ now makes for a fitting, perfectly-timed circle. What was Sharam’s first solo single and album post-Deep Dish also marks the lead into the exciting announcement of his next LP, with the first single set to drop this Spring. Stay tuned…
