House masters

"Spanning his entire career, the two discs wisely mix-up his work as an inventive record producer and the later remix tracks where the sounds became overworked. There's a nod to the late Seventies Salsoul disco that was the raw material for Knuckles to reshape into the stripped-back rhythms and tough drum beats of house music. His glorious, epic touch shines through in the late Eighties masterpieces of Your Love, Baby Loves to Ride, Tears and The Whistle Song, poignantly re-emerging of late with Hercules & Love Affair".

"Whether you're a house novice or a dance music savant, House Masters (in its original form) inscribes a new and invigorating story about who Frankie Knuckles was, and who he will be for the future. If one quality connects the disparate sounds of his work from every era, snaking its way through the full range of his discography, it is a sensation of expressive confidence".
