Ever since I was introduced to House Music in Chicago, back when there was WBMX and the Hot Mix 5 -- I knew that the way music was marketed and played would change. We are now in the year 2000 and the way electroica, as it relates to House Music vibe, has changed. Theres Techno, Trance, Speed, Garage, and so on. But my all time favorite is genuine House Music.

To Mr. Gene Farris, I say keep the house vibe alive. All of the tracks that you programmed, coupled with the sultry voices that appear on occassion, is spot on!!!

If Gene could, I would like him to explore making a complete downtempo CD. Tracks 1 and 6 are key to an excellent downtempo CD.

Excellent house, soulful without being unintelligent, funky without being cliched. The songs don't have that "made for club consumption" feel that you get from, say, Naked Music. A very warm and personal album and very much worth owning.

This album goes beyond genre, becoming a true expression of a production aesthetic. Gene Farris is into quality, whether it's a filter-disco work-out or a hip-hop influenced downtempo track. Soul pours from each track, referencing artists from Earth, Wind, and Fire, to DJ Sneak. Top Quality!
