Friday Jukebox 4.11.14

For the second straight week, I am continuing a mini-tribute to the late Frankie Knuckles, who passed away last week at the age of 59. The Chicago-based house pioneer who released records on the Chicago-based TRAX label, including "Your Love," which he co-produced in 1987.

Friday Jukebox 4.4.14: A Very Short Tribute to Frankie Knuckles.

This week, another huge influence in the EDM world passed away as house pioneer Frankie Knuckles succumbed at age 59. He was a huge influence to not only the house community, but also the EDM community as a whole. Known for his releases on the Chicago-based TRAX label (including "Your Love" from 1987), but this one from 1991 takes the cake, entitled "The Whistle Song." I swore Bob Sinclar sampled the whistling sections in one of his songs?
