Mr. Gene Hunt, Chicago house music legend, is back on LA Club Resource with the”After School” EP. Gene digs deep in his vast archives and unearths three hard hitting tracks for fans of old school house. Heard in the clubs and on mix shows back in the days, these tracks finally surface for the first time on wax.
New release on P&D recordings with an official re-issue of Gene Hunt ‘Body Heat’ released on Dust Trax in 1999. The second track is done by Phil Weeks & Didier Allyne in 2008 is a tribute to E-dancer ‘Human Bomb’.
One of the founding fathers of Chicago house, himself a grandson to a DJ and frequently alongside other greats such as Ron Hardy on the decks, Gene Hunt summons a 3-tracker for the Midnight Shift label. True house and techno direct from the source and in his own words, a rather ‘jungly’ take of it due to the tracks’ chaotic percussion.
Official from re-edition done by Phil Weeks & Didier Allyne from Gene Hunt with released on Svek in 1996 Jazzy: Synth riffs with 808 bass drums. Get Freaky oldschool feel and toughen the tune into techno status like Robert Amarni Style.The Man: Candido sample like old moodymann house track.
There’s something delightfully simple about the formula behind Descendents of the Deep’s From Chicago To Detroit series, which predictably aims to bring together top-notch deep house from the Windy and Motor cities. This second installment begins with JF’s previously unheard re-edit of Gari Romalis’ 1995 cut “Butcher’s Choice”, a righteous lesson in bumpin’, New Jersey-influenced deep house. It’s followed by a typically emotionally-rich Larry Heard dub of Jordan Fields’ 1994 cut “Lifted My Soul”, before Maxi Aubert combines Heard style analogue deepness with rich, Motor City electronics on “Message In The Box”. Elsewhere, there’s a new JF edit of Gene Hunt’s throbbing 1987 jack-jam “Native”, and a wonderfully broken chunk of techno/house fusion from Africans With Mainframes.
Fresh from 1989… 3 classic Chicago acid tracks from the man Gene Hunt. Re-mastered and re-pressed for 2015 in conjunction with Trax Records.
