1. What first inspired you to reimagine Sean Paul's iconic "Get Busy," and why did this feel like the right record to reinterpret?
I've always loved taking songs that have lived with us for years and imagining what they'd sound like if they were born today, born purely for the dancefloor. Not to replace the original, that's obviously impossible, but to let people experience it through a different lens, through mine.
I remember when my team told me Sean Paul was also playing at Coachella (shout-out to Mark), I immediately wanted to remake this one, as I’ve always been a huge fan of his. I couldn’t help imagining what it would feel like if that same “Get Busy” energy found its way onto today's dancefloors. Something that respected where it came from and kept that same “let the animal out of the cage” feel while introducing it to a completely different world and audience.
And once I started playing it out live, every single time it came on, people just lost it in the best way possible. That's when I knew there was something special and we had a big record.
The dancefloor never lies.
2. When approaching a song as culturally significant as "Get Busy," how do you balance honoring the original while creating something entirely your own?
It’s a tall ask, right? It’s not something you want to overproduce, but at the same time you want to make sure you’re bringing some new flavor and sauce without it being cookie-cutter. You’ve got to thread that needle of novelty and familiarity; it’s a delicate dance if you want to do it right.
I think it also starts with having immense respect for Sean and the original. The reason it became a classic is because of the feeling it gives people. So I never wanted to change that feeling, I more so just wanted to build a new world around it.
If people hear my version and it makes them want to go listen to Sean's again...that's a win.
3. How would you describe the sonic direction of this remix, and what emotions or experience do you hope listeners walk away with?
I wanted it to feel familiar, but also like they'd never heard it before.
It’s one of those records where you don't even think about dancing; your body just starts moving, and you have no control over what it’s doing. To me, it’s the absolute freedom of expression, without a care or worry about what you look like. That’s what I wanted this to be for people.
It still has everything people love about the original, but I pulled it into my world with a lot more percussion, groove, and bounce. It's playful. It's got attitude. It's one of those tracks where you look around, and everyone's got the biggest smile on their face, and they’re letting their animal out of the cage.
That's always my favorite kind of dancefloor.
4. If listeners could take away just one feeling after hearing this remix, what would you want it to be?
Freedom.
I know that sounds deep for a booty shaker, haha, but I really mean it.
For four or five minutes, I just want people to let loose. Stop worrying about looking cool, stop overthinking everything, and just dance and fully express themselves. Let the body do whatever it wants to do.
Some of the best moments in life happen when you forget anyone's watching :)
5. This remix isn't about recreating a hit, it's about...
bringing that same iconic energy to a completely different dancefloor and reminding people that sometimes your body knows what it needs before your mind does.

JON SPOON & STREGA - Hold On
JON SPOON & STREGA "Hold On"„Hold On“ von Jon Spoon & Strega ist ein Song für all die Momente, in denen Aufgeben keine Option ist, auch wenn alles in dir genau danach schreit. Der Track nimmt dieses Gefühl auf, wenn man kurz davor steht loszulassen, und verwandelt es in pure Energie, die dich daran erinnert, noch einmal fester zu greifen und weiterzugehen. Die kraftvolle Female Vocal Stimme bringt genau diese Message auf den Punkt: festhalten an dir selbst, an deinen Träumen, an den Menschen, die dir guttun. Mit jedem Build und jedem Drop ruft „Hold On“ dazu auf, dranzubleiben, egal wie laut der Sturm draußen tobt. Die Lyrics drehen sich darum, dass es okay ist zu fallen, solange du wieder aufstehst, dass Dunkelheit nur der Moment ist, bevor das Licht zurückkommt, und dass du mehr Stärke in dir trägst, als du glaubst. So wird aus einem Clubtrack ein emotionaler Anker, der dich in der Nacht begleitet und dir sagt: Halte durch, es wird besser. Der Titel „Hold On“ ist dabei nicht nur ein Name, sondern das zentrale Versprechen des Songs: Wenn der Beat kickt, die Hook einsetzt und alles um dich herum verschwimmt, bleibt diese eine Botschaft klar – halte durch, halte fest, halte an dir und deinem Weg fest. Genau dieses Zusammenspiel aus druckvollem Sound und motivierender Botschaft macht den Track zu einem Song, den man nicht nur hören, sondern immer wieder fühlen will.
