Boogie's Gonna Getcha: '80s New York Boogie is a compilation album in a BackBeats series released in 2010 on the Demon Music Group-sublabel BackBeats. The album was compiled by British music producer Ian Dewhirst and it was released on CD and contains twelve original boogie and post-disco tracks. In the United States, most of the songs were either underground and/or entered the Billboard Dance charts. However, in the United Kingdom it had some success especially on the pop chart, including "On The One" (#72) and "Please Don't Break My Heart" (#77).
The album mainly features artists of the SAM Records label, namely Convertion, Komiko, Klassique, Glen Adams Affair, Vicky "D" and Rhyze.
Reception
The Allmusic review by Andy Kellman introduces the album: "Boogie's Gonna Getcha focuses on the electronics-enhanced post-disco R&B that came out of New York City during the early '80s" but states that "Back Beats digs a little deeper, but not so deep that even the keenest collectors lose interest."
