Throwback Monday: Jungle Brothers- “I’ll House You”

To ease the Monday Blues, today’s throwback is a classic house track. Jungle Brothers- “I’ll House You” will give Chicago natives a flash back to a time when beats ruled–a true mesh of synthesizers and electronic beats. A homegrown musical wonder, House Music is a Chicago staple that has generated a clear break into mainstream. But let us not forget the classic tracks because every Chicago Teen has met the “perculator” at least once in their life.

We can credit house music to the death of disco in the 70’s and underground DJ’s mixing dusty disco with new funky beats. It was a match made in heaven for enthusiastic dancers and DJ’s–a subculture of music aficionados and break-dancers was born. Types like Frankie Knuckles, Fingers Inc., and Steve “Silk” Hurley helped define Chicago House and continue to create those must-have beats that can’t be emulated.

And that is today’s throwback for Monday– a bit of forgotten Chicago history.

Lovin’ what you hear? Some DJ’s to look into: Felix DaHouseCat or DJ Funk. Let YouTube be your best friend on this one–the wonders that lie in underground music will astound you.

So, relax and enjoy!
