Remix of "So Get Up" by Ithaka appears in feature film "Sorted"

In 1999, as a member of the short-lived project Atlantis ITA, Dino Lenny and musical partner Michele Guidi released "In The Next Life" a remix of So Get Up, a 1992 vocal-poem song by Californian songwriter Ithaka (or Ithaka Darin Pappas). The track, which utilized Ithaka's original 1992 vocal, was included in the soundtrack of the 2000 British thriller film Sorted directed by Alexander Jovy along with renowned musical acts such as; Leftfield, Morcheeba, Public Enemy, Elvis Presley and Depeche Mode. The song was played during the closing titles sequence of the film, ending the entire film with Ithaka Darin Pappas' acapella line, "I'll See You In The Next Life". Although other mixes of "So Get Up" had previously charted in the United Kingdom, once in 1995 (at #84 as "So Get Up" remixed by Underground Sound Of Lisbon) and again in 1997 (at #17 as "Get Up! Go Insane" as reworked by Stretch N Vern), however after appearing in the film, Atlantis ITA's In The Next Life modern trance interpretation charted the song a third time in the UK at #96 in May of 2001.
