MASTERS AT WORK – THE KINGS OF HOUSE (BBE/RAPSTER) |
| |
For all the would-be house know-it-alls, step aside; MAW know better. Thus, the duo of Kenny Gonzalez and Louie Vega are an apt choice to compile BBE’s The Kings of House collection, an unmixed collection of indisputable classics. Tracking these tunes down separately would be a chore, so isn’t it nice that stuff like Rhythm is Rhythim’s “Strings of Life,” Cajmere’s featuring Dajae’s “Brighter Days” and Robert Owens’s “I’ll Be Your Friend” are all in one place? Kenny Dope channels more Chicago acid and jacking funk by Mr. Fingers, Hercules and KC Flight and Vega’s affection for disco shines through on numbers by Joe Smooth, Blaze, Cajmere featuring Dajae’s “Brighter Days” and a pair from Frankie Knuckles. As an educational tool, the Kings of House CDs are perfect for anyone researching house history. For DJs, the CDs or LPs are a timeless godsend. Drop any tune herein and impress the snobs, wow the crowd, look the hero and quietly thank the rightful Masters at Work. bbemusic.com, rapsterrecords.com -- review by Yuri Wuensch
