Hey! I'm currently doing research for a course at Loyola where I'm studying the Chicago House music scene. I'm specifically focusing on the presence of spirituality within the community.

I'm putting out a survey to get a wider range of responses--If anyone wants to fill this out, that would be awesome! Everything is completely anonymous and the only information recorded will be your answers (no emails, usernames, any other identifying information will be collected).

Here's the survey, thanks!

I bought (2) tickets for Dusky at Pryzm for tonight and can't go. Anyone interested?

Tonight!!!! Innjoy on division

Man those two were really forum/boards where just about everyone from the scene was in. Haven’t really found similar forums since then. Any existing now?

I’m on kind of random groups and discords, but it’s not the same central hubs like it used to. I woulda thought Reddit would be the natural migration for all the previous heads, but didn’t turn out that way.

One of the key players from the mid-90s to early-00s Chicago House scene, DJ Heather is coming this weekend! It might be her last visit to Tokyo—the last time she was here was like 15 years ago…

DM me for discount tickets :)

Midwest Underground Nation DJ MES Conscious Rhythm Jason Wolfe DJ Seven D3RKIN 21+ No cover! February 8th

Awhile back I heard a track Fumiya Tanaka played in a mix that I haven’t been able to get out of my head. Of course I was driving and could have sworn I took a screenshot so I could find it again later but of course it’s nowhere to be found.

It’s fairly classic Chicago style minimal production, bouncy drums with swing (not 707, pretty sure 909) and vocals which absolutely make the track. The main line is “where do I go… when you don’t want me no more?”

There’s a super simple synth riff which consists of: e d c b……. E d c b. For two bars, then silence for two bars. And the bass is pretty much just a low e repeated with swing.

I’ll be eternally grateful if someone can ID this for me!

Sorry... newb here. I live out in the corn fields and drive in to Chicago to dance.

Where can I go where I won't feel alone on the dance floor?

Thanks!

Thanks in advance, can somebody recommend a Tyndall Chicago house music playlist. If not a playlist, a good collection of Chicago house songs.

Has anyone been able to find his albums on the internet or for sale? My 7 year old found my old album from him and has fallen in love with house music too! I would love to be able to get another digital copy so we jam out without the CD skipping. Sorry if this isn’t the place to ask but I’m at a loss after tying to google.

Visiting NYC for the next couple weeks, would love to groove to music in the style of the above listed. I'll be in Brooklyn mostly but can travel to Queens and Manhattan. Any recommendations? Soul Summit Music fest on Sunday looks amazing. Any recs for Thursday, Friday, or Saturday?
