Pumping Chicago house. Not of the deep variety on average, but stripped
down beats warped with misogynistic lyrics, catchphrases and the occasional
booty call. Lovely to mix with Detroit bass at +8. There are times when all
I want to hear is that kind of stuff and there are times when all I want to
hear is something else (anotherwords it quickly wears on you). Your mileage
may vary.

>Off & on label? Or solid?
I have an expression; got a few Dancemania release, got 'em all. They
release something like 15 records a month. Hard to keep up. There are
however more consistent artists on the label; DJ Funk, Milton, Boogie. They
release occasional *gems* every so often. Pick em up at Barney's in
Chicago. Of the recent releases, I would recommend:

Boogie - ButtNaked - DM253
DJ Funk - GhettoHouse P2 - DM260
DJ Funk - GhettoHouse P1 - DM259

g'luck and may all your booty dreams come true.
