Steve Angello, Sebastian Ingrosso, and PARISI reunite to renew Roman Flügel’s 2004 classic with ‘U Ok?’
More than a decade earlier, Steve Angello worked his magic on “Geht’s Noch?” Fast forward to 2023 and Angello deemed a second revisit to Roman Flügel’s minimalist techno classic was in order. But it wouldn’t be without the help of both a Swedish House Mafia counterpart and an Italian duo. A couple of weeks before Steve Angello, Sebastian Ingrosso, and Axwell used it to reintroduce themselves to downtown Miami a whole half-decade after their 2018 formation, Angello and Ingrosso threw a teaser up to Instagram with what could’ve only been assumed to be more collaborative work after their double-sided Speak Now EP towards the end of 2022. Surely enough, that’s exactly what it was, with Angello, Ingrosso, and PARISI—whom they worked alongside on the forenamed EP—reuniting for a modern-day reimagining of the 2004 original formally known as “U Ok?”
It all started earlier in 2023 when a friend of PARISI found an old USB from the early 2010s, which unexpected included an isolated lead of “Ghet’s Noch?” After playing a demo edit they’d been working on to Angello and Ingrosso, the Swedes knew based on their longtime history with the original that they wanted to be a part of the “timeless melody” once more, returning to their house roots—just as Swedish House Mafia did at Ultra—to result in a proper collaboration. And after Fred again.. and Skrillex set it loose during their surprise back-to-back in Buenos Aires, “U Ok?”—of course—spread like wildfire, leading it to a global introduction during its inevitable placement as Axwell, Sebastian Ingrosso, and Steve Angello’s opening soundtrack to another historic appearance at Bayfront Park. Just a few weeks later and it’s now ours. Travel back to Bayfront Park by streaming “U Ok? below.
