Michelle Galas Turns the Volume Up on Joy With “Keep The Feel In”

“Keep The Feel In” does not pretend to be deep in the moody, sad-girl sense. It is deep in the way movement is deep. Michelle Galas understands something a lot of dance-pop forgot along the way. Music is supposed to move you, physically and emotionally, not just soundtrack your phone scroll.

From the first beat, the track is alive. The production pulses with confidence, clean but never sterile, driven by a sax line that feels like a shot of adrenaline straight to the spine. It is bold to lead with sax in 2025. It is bolder to make it feel cool instead of novelty. Galas pulls it off because she commits fully. No irony. No apology.

Her vocals soar without forcing it. There is strength in her tone, but also ease. She sings like someone who trusts the groove to carry her, not like someone chasing a hook for algorithm points. The melody sticks because it feels natural, not engineered. You can hear her global roots in the rhythm. Caribbean warmth, European pop precision, and London club energy all braided together without sounding confused.

Lyrically, “Keep The Feel In” keeps it simple on purpose. Love. Movement. Staying open even when life feels heavy. In a moment where everything feels loud, anxious, and over-explained, that simplicity lands as rebellion. This song is for people who are tired of being emotionally exhausted by their playlists. It is permission to feel good without having to justify it.

The replay value is high because the track never overplays its hand. It builds, releases, and leaves you wanting one more run back. Perfect for a dance floor, a late-night walk, or blasting through headphones when the world feels like too much.

The video seals the deal. London becomes a playground, not a flex. The joy feels real. Passersby getting pulled into the moment matters because it proves the point. Music is still a universal language when it is made with intention instead of ego.

“Keep The Feel In” matters right now because dance music needs artists who believe in joy without turning it into fluff. Michelle Galas is not chasing trends. She is carving space for movement, connection, and unfiltered release. And honestly, we need that more than another sad bop pretending to be deep.

You lead with sax on this track. What made you confident enough to let that instrument drive the energy instead of hiding it in the background?

The sound of a saxophone, even though it is related most of the time to Jazz music when it is loud and is played with energy, gives a punch to a song and music.

Your music feels physical first and intellectual second. Is that a conscious rejection of where pop culture has gone?

My music and songs are to make people dance, feel good, and take life easy, but the lyrics also has meaning. Pop Music today is a mix of everything, physical vibes and intellectual vibes, up to you to choose where you want to be and how you want to feel.

How does growing up in Guadeloupe still show up in your rhythm choices today, even when you are making music in London?

Guadeloupe rhythms such as beguine (traditional sound) or Zouk music are based on the Djembe and melodies that inspire me, but I like to play with sounds, so my music producer groovstacymusic we are grooving crazy. We like to create and experiment.

You self-directed the video. What was one visual idea you refused to compromise on, even if it made the shoot harder?

I refused to compromise the presence of tourists who were watching the filming of the video and just entered the video. We did not expect this, so it was very nice to see people react to the vibe of the music just wanted to be part of our filming.

When fans tell you this song helped them escape a rough day, what does that responsibility mean to you creatively?

That makes me glad and shows me that my music has a mission to groove this world and make it smile. Groov’WithMe
