Episode 91: Let There Be House: It's Basement Deep
When I was a kid, my two cousin who were about 10 years older than I would always have parties in the basement like most people in Chicago. During this time, (the 70's) most albums would come with posters especially The Ohio Players and Parliament Funkadelic. My cousins always had them hung on the walls along with Black Light posters. You know the ones with neon colors and velvet. Everybody had the one with the zodiac signs & sexual positions. It would get pretty dark in the basement so they would screw in black, red and blue lights. I have very fond memories of those days. Although these were pre-house days, this where my love for dance music began. My cousins would play mostly Soul, R & B and Fun with some soulful disco (like Donna Summers) thrown in. I still can smell the incense (and weed lol) and see the flashing strobe lights. I can still see the Black light posters in the foggy basement and all the hands up in the air. I thanks my cousins for letting there little cuz hang out with them. Those times were magical! That was one of the few places my father would let me go anyway lol. Many years have past since those days and I making magic in my own basement now. Although the music from that time is classic and remains in my collection, I constantly searching for new music and pushing the boundaries of what I do. It is rumored the the term “deep house” was coined because you had to reach deep into you record crates to come up with those tunes. So This week I went ingot he basement and reached deep into my virtual music crate to come up with the playlist and subsequent mix set. I hope you dig it! peace and love Family!
