Saqib, Galactic Girl - New Me

Get Physical Music welcomes Brooklyn-based artist Saqib, teaming up with vocalist Galactic Girl for a truly unorthodox house cut. Their new track fuses a hypnotic off-beat groove with orchestral flourishes, brass and woodwind arrangements, and a circus-like flair that harks back to the label’s early releases from acts like Nôze.

The production is driven by layers of Hammond organ, trumpet, and klezmer-like clarinet lines, all set against a waltzy, Eastern European–inspired rhythm. At its center are the captivating vocals of Galactic Girl, whose voice cuts straight through the mix with character and command. The result is a track that feels both theatrical and club-ready, a surreal yet irresistible slice of leftfield house.

Saqib has steadily carved out his reputation as a boundary-crossing force in electronic music. Originally from Pakistan and now a key figure in New York City’s underground, his productions reflect a lifetime of influences—from rock and metal roots to house, techno, hip hop, Bollywood, and beyond. With close to a hundred releases across labels like Sol Selectas, Abracadabra, and Kindisch, and support from heavyweights including Jamie Jones, Blond:ish, Adriatique, Bedouin, and Lee Burridge, he’s cemented his standing as one of the scene’s most unique and prolific producers.

Galactic Girl, meanwhile, is a rising electronic singer, songwriter, and producer from New York. Blending synth wave, pop, alternative, and cosmic textures into her own otherworldly aesthetic, she brings a magnetic vocal energy that amplifies the track’s theatrical atmosphere. As co-founder of Muse NYC, she’s also an active contributor to the creative culture of her city.

Together, Saqib & Galactic Girl offer something strikingly fresh with ‘New Me’ — a track that defies formula, blending folk spirit, off-kilter grooves, and commanding vocals into a club-ready release that is both daring and unforgettable.
