Simkid, The S.O.S. - We Oui

Following their standout releases on METAPHYSICAL and Definitive Recordings, house duo Simkid & The S.O.S. return to the label with another infectious single, ‘We Oui’, a playful and refined club cut anchored by groove, energy, and personality.

As with previous releases ‘Hot Juno’ and ‘Certainly Close’, the duo fuse deep musical roots with forward- thinking sound design. ‘We Oui’ leads with a cheeky and memorable French spoken-word vocal that loops throughout the track, sitting atop a thick classic house beat and a booming bassline. Over time, new synth elements are introduced and the rhythm evolves, offering an ever-developing groove that keeps dancefloors locked in.

Remix duties come courtesy of Definitive regular Boogie Vice, who delivers a bold reinterpretation rooted in classic electro. With crisp breaks, dynamic drum programming, and clever use of scratch effects, his version channels a raw, retro spirit while keeping things fresh and club-ready.

Simkid, raised in the 80s and influenced by soul, funk, and the French electronic movement, is a London- based producer whose tracks have topped charts and appeared on labels like Get Physical, KMS, and Peppermint Jam. He continues to push a blend of analog warmth and rhythmic sophistication, highlighted by releases like ‘Young World’, still championed by Defected and top selectors worldwide.

The S.O.S., drawing from a rich cultural background between London and East Africa, is a dynamic presence in both studio and DJ booth. Known for his genre-spanning sets and community-focused work through the Illustrated Minds collective, he brings a distinct voice and energy to every project.

French producer Boogie Vice adds his signature groove to the package. Known for his funk-laced, club- ready productions on labels like Ed Banger, Cuff, and Get Physical, his remix of ‘We Oui’ reflects his wide- ranging musical palette and passion for old-school energy. Now based in Cape Town, his cross-continental perspective continues to enrich his sonic output.

‘We Oui’ is another chapter in Simkid & The S.O.S.’ journey of forward-facing house music with timeless flair.

Definitive Recordings was founded by John Acquaviva, Richard Hawtin, and Karl Kowalski in 1992 as an embodiment of their vision for house music. "Not too hard, not too soft" was the mantra and it built up a fine body of talented artists who made a real impact on the global underground and helped to foment a unique identity for Definitive Recordings. After acquiring the catalogue of legendary Canadian house label, Get Physical Music is proud to present a new various artists series that focuses on some of its most classic cuts. John Acquaviva will continue to A&R for the label and work closely alongside the Get Physical team in this new era.
