Traxx played with us back in January and it was another epic night. You can download the recording of his full set from here. Listen out for the whoops and hollers of the crowd picked up on the recording through the needles on the turntables!
It’s a wonderful set in the tradition of the original Chicago DJs–raw, technically perfect, challenging and thoroughly musical throughout. We’ve been enjoying it privately for a few weeks and now here it is for you.
This Mister Saturday Night we’re hosting a very special get together with a very special man at a very special location. Larry Heard, the musician who turned house music deep, is playing with Eamon and Justin at 12-Turn-13. You may remember the space as the loft where we played with Moodymann during a Saturday afternoon downpour back in October. That was good. This one will certainly be no less spectacular.
Who needs to go to the party when you can just watch these clips?
It’s becoming an enjoyable habit for us to share a few words with the guests who we invite to come play with us at Mister Saturday Night, and for our next very special guest we have a special format for the typically text-based interview.
Not only is Larry Heard a musical pioneer, a man who crafted arguably the most original and timeless sounds from the golden age of Chicago house, but he is also one of the most gentle and gracious men we’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. So it was with great excitement when we learned that he decided to forgo email in preference to a recording of his own voice to answer our questions.

A new mix! This one was recorded live on Saturday, November 14th at our home on 1142 Myrtle Avenue the night Scott Grooves guested with us.

This is the second half of the same session and includes jams from Levon Vincent, Moodymann, John Daly, Eddie Amador and Cobblestone Jazz.
