House Salad Music presents
House Heroes, tributes to those who have left their mark in the history of house music

This chapter | Rick Wade
Detroit, USA

Michigan born Rick Wade might not get the headlines of his more celebrated Detroit peers, but few have done as much to contribute to the house canon as he. For nigh on two decades ‘big daddy Rick’ has consistently turned out deeply channeled grooves that need every second of their often elongated lengths to have best effect. Peppered only lightly with strings, the odd breathy voice or some other delicate hook culled from the funk and soul sounds around which he grew up, Wade’s style is the perfect embodiment of minimum effort, maximum impact.

A famously rapid and prolific producer who turns out hundreds of excellent tracks on a non stop basis, Wade is also the force behind legendary imprint Harmonie Park, which has released classics from peers like Mike Huckaby, amongst others. His own discography stretches to three pages and is a pure gold mine for house heads, with each track sounding as timeless as the next. In DJ terms Rick is just as assured, laying down sets that are tinged with funk and soul and keep you dancing in his long form grooves all night long. From Europe to the US, this true house legend has played every venue worth its salt.

"Richard Lee Wade Jr.
American deep house recording artist, and DJ, based in Detroit, Michigan, USA.
Rick Wade was born in small-town western Michigan, less than an hour from Chicago's South Side. In the mid 1980s while studying at the University of Michigan, Wade gained his first gigs spinning deep underground house at the Nectarine Ballroom, the venue where Jeff Mills was also making his name, for techno rather than for house.
Simultaneously, Wade maintained a successful mix show on WCBN named "Journey To The Land Of House". It was a huge success, as were his subsequent gigs at clubs in and around Detroit. So much so that by 1993, Wade was able to build his own studio and form a label, Harmonie Park. "

Detroit dance music thrives on intergenerational connections. In the late '70s and early '80s, the late Ken Collier mixed disco, soul and early electronic dance music in eye-opening DJ sets that left a mark on up-and-coming artists like Delano Smith. Once Smith established himself in the city's explosive techno community, he, in turn, influenced soon-to-be legends like Juan Atkins, Eddie Fowlkes, Jeff Mills, Norm Talley, Mike "Agent X" Clarke and others.

Now an elder statesman, Smith is etched into our history books as a crucial contributor to Detroit dance music, both house and techno. He's known especially for the Detroit beatdown sound he pioneered alongside Talley and Clark—slower, sexier records than what Detroit techno is generally associated for. (The trio even put out an RA Podcast under the name in 2010.) 

It's more recently that Smith has become known as a producer. He started his own label, Mixmode Recordings, and became a regular on Berlin imprint Sushitech, where he released many of his albums, including the jazzy deep house masterclass An Odyssey. His style has evolved over the years to incorporate ambient, dub and more contemporary techno influences.

More recently, Smith's career has been sidelined by an ongoing battle with a rare and untreatable form of cancer. He's hosted livestreams throughout his ordeal to keep in touch with his fans. His RA Podcast, which he calls his "Legacy Mix," is a celebration of his favourite sounds: euphoric chords, jacking drums and deep-space melodies, the elements that have and will continue to reverberate through Detroit and beyond. It also marks the beginning of a more hopeful period for Smith, as he gets ready to travel again, especially with his Legacy Detroit series, which celebrates the lineage he's an indelible part of, and always will be.

Soul Summit is a New York institution. The DJ trio have been putting on a summer festival in Brooklyn's Fort Greene park for well over a decade now, and those gatherings have become a yearly house music pilgrimage for fans from all over the Five Boroughs. The party embodies the ethos of house music: free for everyone, open to families both blood and chosen, a place where everyone is welcome to groove (or just relax) to uplifting, old-school dance music with inspiring lyrics and bumping basslines.

Sadiq Bellamy, Tabu and Jeff Mendoza have created something truly special, and more and more lately, they've been spreading their gospel outside the park, too. They've become residents at Nowadays, where this RA Podcast was recorded as part of a Mister Sunday party. It was also released as part of the Mister Saturday Night's cassette box set to celebrate the party's 15th birthday. This one features an hour of the cassette's 90-minute runtime, plus an additional 20 minutes only available here. It captures this trio at their soulful best, letting vocal tracks play out long and leisurely with expert blends and gentle transitions. The feelings of warmth, love and welcome land with every kick drum and flow through every bassline.

Detroit might be synonymous with techno, but it also has a rich house tradition. And Rick Wade—FKA Big Daddy Rick—is one of Detroit house's key players. Along with the likes of Keith Worthy, Theo Parrish and the late Mike Huckaby (who Wade had a lifelong friendship and friendly rivalry with), he created a hybrid sound that is both techno and house, effortlessly soulful, sculpted and glowing—and Midwest to the core. As Tajh Morris said in a retrospective review of one of his classic records, "growing up in Buchanan, Michigan, meant that Wade was much closer to Chicago than he was to Detroit."

Many of Wade's best records were released on Harmonie Park, his era-defining label that also featured plenty of work from Huckaby. Those EPs still sound fresh and timeless today, qualities that extend to Wade's RA Podcast, which features 90 minutes of smooth-as-butter house old and new. Over the years he's kept the flame burning for the smouldering sounds of Detroit house, working in sounds from younger producers like Folamour along the way. Enjoy listening to a master at work.

House House House Podcast - Episode II, 16/5/20 feat. Snax, TJ Hicks, G.rizo

Hi There!  

Its been a minute!! 

Episode #3 of House x House x House Podcast is here!  This show was recorded in June, a few days into the global “Black Lives Matter” protests related to the murder of George Floyd - an African American who’s brutal murder by a white police officer was broadcasted online. 

Against this backdrop of social unrest and Covid19 quarantine, I interviewed Vienna-based multi-disciplinary artist and vocalist Helena Eribenne (https://earthzoneproductions.com) and French producer A Jackin Phreak (Arnaud). The two bonded as music friends over the internet. Arnaud was a fan of Helena’s via her involvement with S’Xpress - one of UK’s first house music chart topping acts, that debuted in 1989. 

In this interview, Helena fills us in on her experience as a clubber and artist in the early days of house music in London, while Arnaud lets us in on his obsession with acid house. And of course, due to the unique moment, we all share perspectives on ongoing discourse around systemic racism and colonialism.

Helena and Arnaud have collaborated and recently released a beautiful acid house single “Tidalwave” out now on Bandcamp (https://ajackinphreak.bandcamp.com/releases) and online stores with remixes by Stefan Braatz, Low Profiler, and Skat. 

Our DJ guest is Lagos-based Evamic Nzei (https://instagram.com/evamicnzei), a resident DJ at House x House x House. He’s also a producer and currently a resident DJ at Hot FM Lagos. His mixtape is a classic “deep house” mix dedicated to house’s Black American roots: featuring first and second wave producers from Chicago and Detroit including Mr. Fingers, Larry Heard, Virgo 4, Patrice Scott and others.  

And I’m knocking out tunes by Recloose, Vienna Wildstyle, Doc Link, Basic Soul Unit and DJ Pierre.  So tune in this Saturday for some of the finest house, techno, disco and funk, broadcasted to you from under the palm trees and sultry nights of Abuja, Nigeria.  Best wishes to you and yours!  Stay Safe!!
