The Night Before Southport Weekender 50

This is the 160mp3 recording I took directly off the soundboard at the City of Chicago FRANKIE KNUCKLES TRIBUTE.   It was streamed live via audio & video to music lovers around the world on www.Undergroundhouse.tv   

This incredibly electric event took place on Tuesday June 3rd from 6-9pm at Millennium Park in front of the 'Cloud Gate' bean sculpture before a bouncing, joyous crowd of thousands of house-heads... all coming together as one to celebrate the legacy of the Godfather of House Music.... FRANKIE KNUCKLES.   The sun was shining in the blue sky and a positive joyous vibe filled the air.   The DJs (Elbert Phillips, Craig Loftis, Greg Gray and Mike Winston) absolutely crushed it with amazing and heartfelt sets.

DJs:
10:17 - ELBERT PHILLIPS
Elbert Phillips came of age on the burgeoning Chicago House Music scene in the 1980s. From humble beginnings, Elbert would blaze a trail, his DJing has taken him from Chicago to New York and then the world. After being chosen by Frederick Dunson of D/E Entertainment to play at a birthday party for Frankie Knuckles in 2002, Elbert was given the honored privilege to open for Frankie at public and private gigs over the next four years. Elbert has been working on studio production, resulting in the release of his reworking of Rufuss’ “Higher Together” (DJ Elbert’s Dancefloor Redux) featured on Qalomota’s Classics Remixed, and "Beacon Of Light" featuring spoken word artist, Isa Bright Starr on Qalomota Records (France).

55:36 - CRAIG LOFTIS
Craig Loftis has been dj’ing in the Chicago music scene since 1979. He received a degree in Sound Engineering, and after redesigning the sound system for Frankie’s club the Powerplant, he became Frankie’s personal sound engineer, opening DJ and general manager. They jointly developed Frankie’s production company Powerplant LTD, did various remixes of existing songs which are now considered Deep House Chicago classics, and soon after concentrated on producing a Chicago artist named Jamie Principle, one of house music first stars.

He later became chief engineer in charge of production for DJ International Records where he engineered, mixed and produced songs for Fast Eddie, Tyree Cooper, Julian Perez, Bad Boy Bill, Frankie Hollywood Rodriguez, Joe Smooth, Sterling Void, Paris Brightledge and Mike Dunn just to name a few. In 2000 Craig also became a member of the Slang Music Group, a remixing company based in Chicago which did mix work on such artist as Pink, Kelly Price, Sisco, R-Kelly, Ruff Endz, Backstreet boys and Whitney Houston. In 2012 Craig and longtime friend Joe Smooth teamed up to form GIFTED SOULS, with one of their first client being Frankie Knuckles himself, for the mix on Frankie’s track “Get Over You” featuring B-SLADE. Gifted Souls has developed a large remix catalog featuring some of largest Labels and Artist on the house music scene worldwide.

1:37:00 -  GREG GRAY
DJ Greg Gray has been playing records since he was 12 years old. Greg got into beat mixing in high school and spent two summers as an intern at the Power Plant while he was in college, under the direction of Frankie Knuckles, solidifying their longtime friendship. Greg has seen the music come full circle. His continual DJ’ing and love for the music has made Greg a respected pioneer on the underground scene.

2:18:11 - MIKE WINSTON
Mike Winston was Frankie's original opening DJ at the Powerplant and longtime friend. A pioneer in 1970’s DJ underground scene, Mike Winston was one of Frankie Knuckles early cohorts and dj collaborators.

Mi-Soul Radio Take1

Tony Humphries - Mi-Soul Radio

Since Paul's passing, he pops into my mind almost daily. He gave me my first break in this industry, and has always guided and supported me. So many tracks come to my mind when i think about Paul, and yesterday his presence was with me really strongly and i couldn't stop thinking about him, and how he inspired me in so many ways. I just needed to play music that reminded me of Paul Trouble and some truly amazing times in my life. so here is is. Nearly 4 hours of tracks that flowed from me yesterday (all very spiritual i know, but that's the truth). Some of the mixing ain't the best and there's a few key clashes but i thought fuck it just share it. I hope you enjoy!

Neil Pierce Tribute To Paul Trouble Anderson (Classic House and Garage)

Hey everybody. Today is a very sad day for Tony in the loss of his close and dear friend, Michael Procter, a former lead male singer with the hit group "The Fifth Dimension". Michael and Tony were like brothers and after hearing the sad news, Tony was floored when he got the call this morning about Michael's transition to be with God. Michael entered the House scene and had a string of classics to his credit, and will be sorely missed by the music world. In a tribute to his memory, Tony has put together a short mix of some of Michael's classic songs below. Michael Procter, forever rest in peace.                                                                  Playlist: 1. Fall Down, 2. Get on Out There, 3. Eternal, 4. Call Him Up, 5. Can't Get Over You, 6. Change, 7. Love Don't Live, 8. She Said, 9. Deliver Me.
