   This Mix is Lovingly dedicated to Frankie Knuckles, a Beloved Friend, who touched my Soul & my Heart in magical ways.  His Sensuality, his Sensibility, his Elegance, his Soul, his Beauty, his Sweetness, his Smartness, his Brightness, his Kindness, his Sense of Humour, his Love for Life, his Passion were in every single note of his Magnificent Music. Frankie was such a Gentleman. Moments with him were always priceless. I am so lucky to have met such a Wonderful  & Dazzling Person in my life. Things won't be the same anymore...  
   His influence on House Music and people was profound all around the world. I have been playing his Music for 25 years, The Def Mix Sound, and I shall never, ever stop playing it. It's our duty to Frankie to support and preserve his Legacy.

Sami Dee's Tribute To Frankie Knuckles ( 1955- 2014 ) Maximum Love Forever, Frankie!

Over the course of a musical career which has spanned over 20 years, Sami Dee, aka “Le Flamant Rose” or “The Flamingo”, has been a champion of House Music in numerous capacities. As a DJ, he’s showcased his unique & energetic style in the best clubs in France ( 287, Rex, Les Bains, Queen) but also worldwide in cities such as Montréal (Stereo, Circus, Beach Club), Miami, London, Prague, Geneva, and Algiers. Another key stop in his vast career was at the legendary Red Zone in New York City, where he had the advantage of meeting the “Boss” himself, David Morales, who tutored the young DJ in the early 1990s. If Sami Dee is deemed a true master in the art of mixing records, it is also thanks to the radio. He reached this hard-to-earn legendary status first on NRJ Radio, co-hosting “Better Days” with Bibi, during a classic four-year run which saw the show broadcasted in France, Switzerland, and Belgium, and then, on FG Radio, for over nine years. Today, he’s pleasing his worldwide followers through his podcast,"  Forever More House Music By Sami Dee" releasing unique mixes like only he can. Furthermore, Sami Dee may be an even more recognizable name as a producer & remixer, with over a hundred original productions and remixes on his résumé with the likes of  Grammy Award Winners David Morales, Frankie Knuckles & Gregory Porter, Kenny Carpenter, Todd Terry,  Dimitri From Paris, Lisa Pure & CeCe Peniston for various labels such as  Warner, East West, Atlantic Records, Def Mix,  Stereo Productions, In-House records, Ultra, Nocturnal Groove, Tony Records, Mjuzieek Digital & Poole Music. After more than 20 years in the game, Sami Dee is still one to be reckoned with, both in the DJ booth and in the studio. Having gained accolades from some of the biggest names in the business and having worked for legendary artists, Sami Dee is still pushing his music forward, while paying homage to the roots, producing new gems in his unmistakable style.
