Get Physical Music seem to have developed a cunning knack for outputting sun soaked anthems over the years.

The theme can be traced back to 2005 and the release of the Booka Shade double header ‘Mandarine Girl’ and ‘Body Language’ (alongside M.A.N.D.Y.); a pair of tracks that practically suffocated Ibiza through their sheer ubiquity.

Think back to Samim’s summer 2007 accordion jig ‘Heater’ and Noze’s booze-addled, Miami conquering ‘You Have To Dance’ from last year, and the trend becomes abundantly clear.

Although not quite an all encompassing anthem in the vein as those above, Fredski and Tomas Barfod’s ‘March On Swan Lake’ looks like it could be shaping up to inflict hefty levels of damage upon the terraces of WMC this year.

Based around a marauding sax sample and an assortment of other acoustic instruments, the track has a sort of cheeky charm in the vein of last year’s anthem du jour ‘Trompeta’ - and will likely invoke similar ‘love it or loathe it’ reactions.

WhoMadeWho drummer Barfod is no stranger to the Get Physical imprint, having had a brief releasing stint on the label back in 2004. It is however his first outing with newcomer Fredski, and, if the brief sample we heard of their follow-up single is anything to go by, this could be the nascent stages of a bountiful new musical partnership.
