Frankie Knuckles “Baby Wants to Ride” (Jimmy Edgar Edit) FREE DOWNLOAD

The magic behind the House Music is made by feeling and relationships. You can see this again through tribute that Jimmy Edgar made in honor of the Godfather.

"It is with great honor that I am able to give this away. A tribute to one of my heroes, Frankie Knuckles.

The relationship between Detroit and Chicago, for me, has always been about connection. Any kind of rivalry is secluded and irrelevant, in my opinion.

Chicago is approximately a 6 hour drive from Detroit, so, growing up we would frequent parties, back and forth. On any weekend in Detroit, we could meet people from Chicago who wanted to experience our small scene in Detroit.

Whereas Detroit had a much more distant, cold feeling while still trying to retain human elements, Chicago house music always appealed to me because it seemed like the softer, soulful version of Techno. I was drawn to the organ chords and the jacking indigenous rhythms of 808s. Growing up with Detroit radio, we were exposed to funk music and a lot of R&B. Some of the first records I bought were Change “Change of Heart” and Frankie Knuckles presents Jamie Principle “Your Love”, both artworks and music having very geometric, mechanical feeling, yet airbrushed and fun vibes.

Frankie Knuckles was the most pivotal figure in this movement, for me. The first time I had heard “Baby Wants To Ride”, it really moved me. The way the dot matrix synths moved in seemingly Euclidian patterns, the bounce and slight swing of that bass line, and the way the dissonant chords tied it all together. One listen and you can see where I drew all my inspiration from when making my tune from 2006, “Hot, Raw, Sex”. Let’s just say that record would have been a lot different without Frankie K.

“Tears”, “Rain Falls”, and “Your Love” among some of the best tracks I found on vinyl in Chicago. A few of them so popular you could find them at Salvation Army.

What else can I say about Frankie that hasn’t been said this week? With this track, we celebrate his life, his kindness, his love for music, his inspiration, his passion and all that he gave during his life.

Thank you Frankie,

Jimmy Edgar"

Semper&Solum VA Vol I (Free Compilation)

I discovered it by accident and immediately thought: what the hell is this? and where the f*uck has been until now?
And then, after a little research, I found that it wasn't so far because this musical puzzle was assembled by an Italian guy named Fede Lng. Wow! This guy has put up one of the few compilations with a sound that matches that of the original House music (the one born in Chicago!).

"Semper&Solum VA Vol I" is the compilation that you were not expecting... 

but strongly hoped for the release.

Ware - House

La House Music nasce nella prima metà degli anni '80 nella città di Chicago, facendo divenire quindi gli Stati Uniti d'America la nazione in cui lo scenario relativo alla disco si evolveva più rapidamente. Questo genere si prefigura come una fusione fra disco music degli anni '70 più soul e funk, opportunamente riviste e corrette per dar vita a qualcosa di nuovo. Un nome su tutti è riconosciuto unanimemente come il fondatore del genere : Frankie Knuckles. Così come è certo anche il luogo di nascita, il locale Warehouse, da cui il genere prende il nome!
Assieme a Frankie Knuckles, a porre le basi per la house contribuirono anche Larry Levan e Nicky Siano. Infatti i 3 già durante gli anni settanta si aprirono alla sperimentazione, creando il "beat matching", principio primo ormai non solo della house music ma anche di tutti gli altri generi affini, consistente in soldoni nel mettere 2 dischi da suonare in sequenza allo stesso tempo, non facendo avvertire il passaggio fra l'uno e l'altro. I migliori dj riescono quindi a creare un continuum che dura diverse ore, se non sono capaci ascolterete dei bassi simili ad una mandria di cavalli selvaggi, che galoppano ognuno per conto suo!!!Altro merito della house, sempre grazie ai 3 djs menzionati prima è quello di "inventare" l'antesignana dell'odierna effettistica, ottenuta per mezzo di un altro piatto.
Anche in Europa il genere si fece conoscere ben presto, arrivando verso la fine degli anni ottanta, giungendo dapprima in Inghilterra, ed avere la consacrazione definitiva ad Ibiza.
Anche in Italia si diffuse moltissimo, arrivando ad avere un genere proprio, la "Spaghetti House" o "Italo House".
Nel nostro continente arrivò assieme ai rave party ed alle droghe sintetiche, finendo per diventare un fenomeno sociale giovanile di grande importanza, ma ha portato anche una certa attitudine a generalizzare nei confronti di chi frequenta le discoteche.
A proposito di discoteche, elenchiamo le principali, che sono diventate veri e proprio luoghi di culto, quali la già citata Warehouse, il Paradise Garage, il Gallery, l'Amnesia e il Ministry of Sound, giusto per citarne qualcuna.
Le principali differenze rispetto alla musica techno, che nasceva nello stesso periodo, sono la presenza di suoni (sintetizzati) di strumenti reali quali pianoforte, violino, sassofono, fiati in generale, snare, hat e parti vocali. Differente è anche il tempo che nella house è fissato intorno ai 130bpm, leggermente inferiore rispetto alla techno.
