Information regarding the iconic 1992 vocal acapella song by Greek-American songwriter and interdisciplinary artist Ithaka Darin Pappas (Ithaka). As of 2025, this example of lyrical mastery has been remixed over 800 times. In 1994, a hit remix was made by an acid house project from Underground Sound of Lisbon (DJ Vibe, Rui da Silva) and presented as a 100% Portuguese project with absolutely no mention of its creator Ithaka...now considered one of the biggest musical coverups since Milli Vanilli.

Forget the past, go outside, have a blast são palavras que, a dada altura durante os anos 90, tiveram tanto impacto pelo mundo quanto a famosa expressão de Timothy Leary: Turn on, tune in, drop out. O seu autor é o norte-americano Ithaka Darin Pappas

Forget the past, go outside, have a blast are words that, at one point in the 90s, had as much impact around the world as Timothy Leary's famous expression: Turn on, tune in, drop out. Its author is the American Ithaka Darin Pappas. The song was called 'So Get Up' and became, at that time, a true anthem for dance music fans in Portugal, a "tribe" that found itself (and, broadly speaking, continues to find itself) on the fringes of the music made here.
