the chicago vinyl series continues to act as a vessel for ever more essential club tackle from the one and only tyree cooper. on this occasion he s collaborating with celebrated vocalist isis and the legendary adonis for this absolutely storming tribute to the heritage of chicago house music. the original passin thru the house is a consummate jack track, shouting out all the right names and letting the 707 fills rip through the groove. tyree then offers up three alternate mixes of the track, from the bugging vocal mix to the uplifting melodious form of the vocal soul remix. there s an instrumental version tacked on if you need it, but its all about isis killer vocal on this 12inch

tyree coopers all you need is house ep is a proud celebration of the genre, done chicago style and rammed home by marco’s wailing vocals. through solid drums and strong vocal hooks, coopers original beats down hard justifying the need for a 180g pressing. it rattles and hums until dropping into a tom-drum and snare solo similar to runaways *brooklyn club jam*. bobby starrs mix brings marcos teddy pendergrass-sung vocals to the fore, while milty evans gets a little techier with a cut up approach, adding white noise flashes and lots of filterwerk. cooper second take comes via a classic dub which draws a link between squelchy baile funk and a masters at work drum track.

122 bpm is the story of how a father and his son changed chicagos dance music scene in the 1980s and went on to take the world by storm, leaving an impression that will last forever with just a couple of 12 inch releases the world would soon know as house music. nemiah mitchell jr. and vince lawrence couldnt have known what their contribution to house music would become. their story provides the missing chicago link between soul, disco, new wave and then house, between the radio and club djs and their audience, between the old generation and the new generation. this is the story of the first house records ever made - long before trax or dj international were even dreamt of. the compilation includes numerous unreleased tracks and beyond hard to find house tracks made in chicago in the early to late eighties from the catalogues of mitchbal records and chicago connection records

the chicago house sessions ep features vocals by k joy whos most known for her work on the classic track “like this” with chip e. here weve got 2 original tracks, >77 monte carlo< & >nite ridn<, plus a nu bang mix and an extra >deep body rub<. true heart & soul, real house music
