wow...what a start! Grooving here in Atlanta!

Blasting this as the weather starts to warm up over here. Perfect selection. A lot of under appreciated cuts here! Thank you!

Karren Pollock should get some dough for the finest darkest bitterest Murk vocal ever is the only fault on that record

I wanted to share this mostly because I feel Miami's chapter in the American dance music canon struggles to be as well known here in the states as it is in Western Europe. Till this day, every time I am in Europe I get asked about Murk by music heads and DJs.

I met Oscar G and Ralph Falcon in 2002 while working at the old Space Miami. We immediately became friends and they soon got to teach me a great deal about music. It wasn’t until the following year that two other musical mentors, Stryke and and Danny Tenaglia, enabled my appreciation for their groundbreaking early records, as well as my understanding of their impact and legacy. Their catalog of revered works from the early 90s endures like few others from the era, continuing to be celebrated and played back on the regular at clubs throughout the world.

Turn it up.

"This mix from Diego Andrés highlights the work of legendary Miami duo Oscar G and Ralph Falcón, AKA Murk, from 1991 through 1994. Put simply, these are some of the most influential house tracks not just out of Miami, but anywhere in the world, and they still sound incredible." — Resident Advisor
