"Jack Your Body" is a song by American music producer Steve "Silk" Hurley, originally released as a single in 1986.
One of the landmark records in the history of house music,[1] "Jack Your Body" was composed and produced by Hurley.
The title refers to jacking, an ecstatic dance style that emerged within the Chicago house scene since the early to mid 1980s.
In 1996, Oliver Bondzio of German electronic music duo Hardfloor chose "Jack Your Body" as one of the tunes that changed his life, saying, "This was one of the first tracks I heard being played in Checkers, a club in Düsseldorf I went to for three years.
It isn't by any stretch of the imagination the best Chicago had to offer in 1987: as a signal of a vast shift in the way pop music sounded, it's unbeatable."
