Madhouse Records KCTDL626 - release date: May/17/2010...
The second instalment of the A Basement, A Red Light & A Feeling series, including DJ mixed version by Kerri Chandler.
New Jersey born and bred, Kerri began DJing at just 9 years of age and has been producing since he was 15. Inspired by the Paradise Garage sound of the early eighties and also by his father (a DJ himself, whom Kerri would accompany to gigs, eagerly watching and learning the tricks of the trade and loving every moment), Kerri Chandler is today recognised as one of house music's most innovative, influential and distinctive producers, remixers and DJs.
Since his debut release back in 1990, Kerri has graced the decks of many of the world's most significant nightclubs, produced and remixed many of music's most influential artists, and recorded for just about every house label that counts (Ibadan, Wave, King Street, Shelther, Strictly Rhythm). Blending his influences from the sounds of jazz, soul and disco, what makes Kerri so unique, unlike many of his peers, is his ability to consistently reinvent himself, constantly diversifying his sound, from deep dubby cuts, minimalist jazz infect grooves to full on vocal anthems, each release as timeless and personal as it's forefather.
Of course, any real house music fan will know just how influential Kerri Chandler is. However, many people may not know that it was a chance meeting back in 1990 with Harlesden based Champion Records MD, Mel Medalie, at the New Music Seminar in New York City that really kick started Kerri's career. That day a special partnership was formed. Together they set up Kerri's own Madhouse Records imprint, a launch pad for Kerri's various productions.
12 years on, Madhouse Records is a name synonymous with good quality house music and the label, just like Kerri himself, is an institution in house music's history. This compilation is the second in the series of the highly regarded "A Basement, A Red Light & A Feelin'" compilations (the first volume was released in 1992) and features the superb talents of Roy Ayers, Anthony Flanagan, Arnold Jarvis and Christopher McCray amongst others.
The live mix of "A Basement, A Red Light & A Feelin' Volume 2" was recorded live at GBH @ Centro Fly, 45 West 21st Street, New York on 16th February 2002.
