Frankie Knuckles (Satoshi Tamoiie) - Tears
Frankie Knuckles was a pioneer, being at the forefront of establishing the warehouse scene in Chicago, laying the foundations for what we all know as House music, without which, much of the music we hear today would not even exist. Jamie XX, James Blake, SBTRKT and many current makers of dance music would not have the blueprint for what they are doing today. Here are two of Frankie's biggest tunes. Without Your Love, we wouldn't have Candi Staton And The Source's Your Love, which in turn wouldn't have spawned Florence And The Machine's cover - a meandering dirty, deep house monster of a tune, which was created for late, late all night club parties; whilst Tears is just a gorgeous celebration of vocal house. R.I.P Frankie Knuckles…
