1987-Number 8 single.
Best Bit-At 6.17. I can never remember what this song is called.
The brains behind the song is Farley Williams, born 25th January, 1962, in Chicago, Illinois, United States.He is one of the music producers responsible for developing the musical genre of ‘Chicago House Music.’ In 1985 Williams, together with Irwin Eberhart, better known by his stage name ‘Chip E.,’ set up their own record label called ‘House Records,’ and that was where Williams would release highly influential tracks under various aliases, such as ‘Farley Funkin’ Keith,’ and ‘Farley ‘Jackmaster’ Funk,’ (see also best songs 424.)
As the title suggests ‘Chicago House’ evolved in Chicago, in the early 1980’s. By the end of the 1970’s ‘Disco Music’ had reached the end of it’s lifespan, and the next generation needed their own new music. House Music built on Disco in a more technical manner, where as Disco music was often played by Orchestras, House Music was performed with synthesizers, and studio technology.
