I was born in Chicago and my family moved to Birmingham, Alabama. We moved back to Chicago in 84’. I was 10 and what an amazing time to be in Chicago. House music was alive, the Bears were dominating and Michael Jordan had just signed with the Bulls. Then a few years later Hip Hop enters into the golden era. What a time to be alive!
your comment was on point until you mentioned hiphop🤮👎🏼
I was only 10 when jack your body hit number 1 in the UK (1987). It was the first single I ever bought for myself and Ive been hooked on house ever since.
I made the pilgrimage to the old warehouse site in Chicago in 2011. It was raining and I stood under a tree on the opposite side of the road, trying to imagine what it was like back in the day.
@@user99641 hahahaha…what tf u have against an entire genre?
House estubo vivo por más años...bajo su desarrollo en Bélgica
Hip Hop solo en ciertos rincones.
@@user99641 😂😂
"Maybe it's a global thing. People can understand it." Oh brother, did they ever!
I’m 57 years old and I play Chicago House Until this day…..loud!!!!! My friends lose there minds when I play on & on…..it’s ok!!!!……time to jack……..puet……..Los ninos DEL parquet……….transdance……to far gone…….the BASS in those records are CRAZY…..
Los niños en el parque song?
The video is over 5 years old, and yet, many of these comments are new (as recently as a day ago).
Oh well, better late than never.
It's quite moving and enthralling to hear firsthand accounts from the pioneers who moulded my favourite genre of music. Bless them
It got recommended to me yesterday, the youtube algorithm at work it seems
A lot of these music producers are still going strong
I am so glad I was in my early teens when this genre of music started. I started going to the Paradise Garage in 84 - 85, and it was absolutely amazing. I was hooked the very first day I went. All these songs were played there, but what I loved to hear most were the Disco classics. I was in heaven listening to those songs through that incredible sound system. It was just an incredible experience.
Im watching this for the third time and I have goosebumps all over my body again !
Amazing how none of these house documentaries have millions of views .I guess some people are in denial about who's the GODFATHERS OF HOUSE MUSIC..
It feels really great every time while Im watching this video and Im realizing that behind me in my wardrobe in my very small vinyl collection I have that fucking vinyl with the fucking red label on it !!!
even today here in South Africa House is the most popular music by far and it has given birth to Amapiano genre,another local version of House music that played by J.M Silk,Robert Owens to say the least.
Haibo
The Godfathers of Deep House S.A. are my favorite DJs. Nuff respect to South Africa! ❤🇿🇦🎶
Kabelo and the Yizo Yizo 2 soundtrack were my introduction to Kwaito and South African House music back in early 2002. That year, I was enrolled in the University of Ghana and had some Botswanan dormmates who played Nothing but Kwaito and South African House!
@@samaniewelbeck938Godfathers of Deep House??
HOUSE MUSIC is huge in South Africa since the 80's ..... i still remember a song that TRIGGERD my love for HOUSE🙆♂. i was 12 in 2005 when i heard ''Clara Hill ft Vikter Duplaix - paper chase'' 🤯🤯🤯........ I've been listening to HOUSE ever since.
I just went and listened to the music 🔥🔥🔥🔥 thank you
How tf have only 3360 people watched this?! All 4 you’re not doing CZcams right.
It's really weird how the algorithm never got triggered to show this to everyone. I'm originally watched it (with about a million other people) when it was on actual television, but I'm mystified by its low viewing count on here. (Less than 20k after five years).
@@AutPen38 man this algorithm is trash!!! How am I just seeing this?
@@anthonyholmes113 I watched this when it first came out, but it’s always good to see it again. . .
Underground, plain & simple. Kids today think they know house from listening to some nowadays EDM. Absolutely because they don't know what we know, they haven't been where we've been, felt what we felt; us oldies are the roots. It's my culture & I'm so proud to say I am a HouseHead4Life. Ever since House Nation by The Housemaster Boyz came out I was hooked (at 11 years old). Thank heaven for House 🙏 it's got me through, as it's my one true constant & of course, RIP ✝️ Frankie Knuckles 😢
This was one of the best documentaries I’ve seen in a while. Thank you!
If you ain't watched the pump up the volume documentary.
@@godsson7787that's the godfather of house documentary
No wonder they were pissed with Trax for not telling them about what was happening in the UK! Where was the revenue from those overseas sales going?
I'm from South Africa and grow up next to a club...the first track was JACK YOUR BODY and boy I was hooked
Thank you to all the innovators.
The TRAX photo on the cover is fucking legendary.
House music change the entire Europe music scene forever.. that's wild i remember in the late 80s people were still listening disco music like Diana Ross in the clubs untill thechno music arrived and people completely loved it. Now techno is by far N1 in europe. Uk , Germany, spain, italy etc
The first time I saw Marshall Jefferson DJ live was in the summer of 1999 in Victorville, CA at a baseball field and I was like yeah this is proper house music. #legend
Gave me Goosebumps!
Love it!
House music and Ecstacy were like the hand and the glove in the UK . I remember the music would stop and this guy still dancing
I was there man. Lived thru it all and got mash up for many years. Loved it.
More into the dirty undergound places that went on until the next day.
Double doves ha ha.
Pink and Yellow Calis, 15 quid a pop 😮
Absolutely love seeing the pioneers of my favourite style of music talk about their passions. So much rich history. I might not be old enough to have seen them do their magic in their time, but the impact they've had in the scene can sure as hell be felt today.
These Documentaries are absolutely perfect. Soooo underapreciated.
Great job to whoever is behind it 🎉
Id say the WOMEN of house music are unknown and underappreciated. This doc NOR THE MEN mentioned anything about them.
You know there was some Sistas deejaying and singing on them records too.
So disrespectful.
House Music Forever!!!!!!
Great Video’s,Thanx😎✌️😎
I ❤ 🏠 🎵 . When I first heard Time to Jack by Cheap E. I got addicted to House Music. I had a bunch of Traxx records and DJ International Records. Roland created the best House and hip hop Drum Machines and the 303 and funky synthesizers. Akai came out later with the MPC 60. Great video
Brilliant Documentary 😊
Damahneee was here March 14th ,2024 Medellin Colombia
Acid house was our Northern soul & breakbeat ska
Cajmere def took it to the next level for Chicago
Brilliant time to be involved in music , house forever!
I have no social anxiety around house heads. These are my people
Drum & Bass, say thank you to House music for you existence.
😅❤
amazing knowledge
This video is blowing my mind!
Watch pump up the volume if you want your mind blowing properly
I’m glad I got to see Chanel tres play his jams when he opened up for thunder cat.
OMG! I lived in NY in the 80s but am originally from the UK. They mentioned Hacienda in the UK - I still have a CD I bought there although I’ve long since converted it to MP3. It’s the 1st time I’ve ever seen reference to Hacienda! Great videos.
Watch pump up the volume documentary its the best documentary ever, it has Manchester and the hacienda on it
Thank you!
The hacienda is still there... but not as a club, it was converted to apartments. The name remains the same though.

@10:55 I remember this! That was when I 'knew' that House Music was GLOBAL! :D
What an absolute legend man
40 bucks for a 303 just started twisting knobs and acid house is born. Incredible.
That classic 808 and 909 perc, was a game changer
I just heard that the 808 was low frequency 😮..I wonder if the darkside took over then aswell..there must of been the duality shit I guess😮❤
Groove on!
I'm. Here for it 09/22 lit
6:34 "It is now" :)
Got my sub
Jacking was the start of 90s dance. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Old school house still stands preference in my ears ❤❤❤
Happy this is in the algorithm
This music changed the UK music scene forever.

Duane Thamm Jr was using the tb303 in 1984-85
whats the track at 5:16?
Evolutionary era. O mighty have been blessed and entranced to the movement from 1987 to 2015. Epic Escapism on the Dance Floor, in Restrooms, Side Rooms, Back Rooms, Roof Tops, Alley Ways, Warehouses, Factories, Private Houses and the Recoveries, OMG OMG OMG.........Stumbling around in a daze out of a club....to myself, "What day is it?" OMG "What time is it?".....in a taxi, on foot, or just swaying side to side somewhere? Moment of clarity and reality occurs ......oops better call in sic to work and get a medical certificate. hahahahaha year after year after year. And I survived it all, yes with consequences indeed. Anyway thats a "MIRACLE" to have experienced and reminisce. hallelujah. amen
Ohh wooow when they talk about those crappy sounding records from the low pressing quality I remember getting those f'd up records and taking them back to Soul Disco records in SF to trade for a better copy...if Bobby G could find you one 😂😂
What's the track ID at 13:35? Incredible!
"Your only friend" -phuture
you can hear what Kanye sampled for "Fade" at 12:37 mark! that shit hard
Where all my house heads at? Great days those were!
Right here brother. Still finding dope house music on beatport and its still played at my local college station and at venues by Djs like Rich Media, Josh Wink, Joshua Lang, Ill Vibe Collective, King Britt, mathew law, and so many others
I remember that 2.5 hour drive down to Chicago on the weekend very well. Going to a party or a club. The drive back was murrrderrrr though 😅
@@elisegilmer6290 2.5 hrs AFTER drinking and partying? damn thats amazing. why didn't you stay with friends or rent a hotel ?
@@iunderstanphotography2780 ahaha we were underage, broke and dumb. plus we didn't drink, not that it matters after being up all night on MDMA and whatnot.
@@elisegilmer6290 '...broke and adventurous.."
fixed that for you.
who were the iron willed people driving after all of that?
Sweet ! anyone know the closing track ?
It’s Jamie Principle : Waiting On My Angel. Released in 1985.
Nice documentary, but it would do House music a lot more justice if you would credit all of the songs, that were used.
what track is playing at 12:38?
nice
Incredible video!
Shared! And yes I was the white girl at the warehouse on the South side jacking it. 😂
I remember how house took over Jersey

Was gonna ask the same thing; sick track!
Detroit caught on when? 2nd? 3rd?
The biggest ever house song turned out to be Madonna's "Vogue," ironically.
I can’t turn around JM silk
Sherman was visionary and saw the business side of things of which its always a good thing to learn from such ppl so that the makers of the music benefit.
Thank you for the response I appreciate it.
House did evolve to hip house for a couple of years in late 80’s. Techo took its place briefly, before some type of house variation did a slight comeback.
House evoluciona y se desarrolla con la escena New Beat & Ácid de Bélgica.
House music never evolved into hip hop. Hip Hop was birthed and created way before House music. In the late 60's and early 70's. Hip Hop and House music is there own separate genres of music. House music may have evolved from Disco music after 1976 -1977. House music evolved out the disco era into a more progressive sound of Black grassroots party clubs
@@opalivy739 El House se forja de la EDM concreta de los 70s (1ra Generación a partir de 1977) y bajo sus 2 lineas primarias el NRG & Synthpop, la Electro Moderna (Post Concreta, Experimental & Moog) y la Electro Funk todo esto dentro de la escena Disco de finales del 70s.
Bajo este conjunto Electrónico y la EDM concreta se da las bases más fundamentales y solidas de la ramificacion de la EDM 80s (2da Generación): House, Techno, Synthpop, NRG, Freestyle, Italo, New Beat, Trance, Ácid, Eurobeat...incluído el electro base de la llamada "EBM" y lo más sofisticado de la Electro Industrial.
El lado más electro de la base Hip Hop se da en el Freestyle la cual es una rama de la EDM 80s.
@@opalivy739 You make good points, but house and hip hop ain't all that distinct. Just really depends on how you look at it. Despite house have came from disco, disco was heavily influenced by funk, soul, Motown, etc. With that said, house have very strong influences from gospel, soul, funk, etc. Now some folks have said "Motown didn't create house"!!!!! Well that's not what's being said. We're saying Motown had a influence on house music along with sounds from Moroder. FBA all day, everyday🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼!!!!! Akin.
@@fbafiredragon2502 I'm FBA 🇺🇲 as well. I live in Chicago and was there and on the scene actively. When House music was birthed and created when I was a teenager during the early 80's. 82' 83'.
The majority of the DJ's featured in this video. I either knew them or followed them at their party scenes back in the day.
I know how House music was created, developed, and invented. It took off right away especially at the juice bars, underground parties, gay clubs, and WBMX Friday's night hot mix 5.
White boy here watching with my mouth open. So you are saying, jazz, house, blues and techno are Black music. Disco too.
Yep, all such music came from Black people. FBA all day, everyday🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼!!!!! Akin.
Dave brubeck might have something to say about the jazz
*YES IT IS ALL BLACK MUSIC but specifically Black American music.* Black Americans specifically don't get the credit they deserve as a cultural group for all of the contributions they've made to popular culture, modern musical culture, even in the foundation of what is currently known as Country music, and OF COURSE ROCK N ROLL.
It's a shame Kraftwerk wasn't mentioned as they were pioneers that were the precursor of house, techno and trance.
There is a limit to what you can cover in one documentary, and this focused on house rather than electronic or dance music more broadly
@@NOWtheband Kraftwerk was more electronic and techno vibes tuff definitely not house but dance music indeed. Their early sound experimental stuff was giving off techno vibes but not as danceable as other techno out of Detroit.
They weren’t house, though. They were electronic, which is a vast spectrum of music. Also, don’t forget about Yellow Magic Orchestra if you’re to mention pioneers of electronic music.
No mencionan a Kraftwerk por qué el House, Techno y Trance no sé forjan del KRAUTROCK.
House, Techno & Trance se forjan de la EDM Concreta de Moroder (1ra Generación desde 1977) bajo sus 2 lineas primarias NRG & Synthpop sumada a la Electronica Moderna (post Concreta, Experimental & Moog) de los productores y desarrolladores más sofisticados y revolucionarios de los 70s (Moroder, Jarre, Lacksman, Tangerine Dreams, YMO, Schulze, Vangelis, Faltermeyer, Tonet, Gizzi, Pinhas, Martin W. & Ian Craig...solo por menciónar los mas relevantes), de estás bases y modelos concretos se da la ramificacion de la EDM 80s (2da Generación): House, Techno, Synthpop, NRG, Freestyle, Italo, New Beat, Trance, Ácid, Eurobeat...incluído la base del llamado EBM y lo más sofisticado de la Electro Industrial.
En House el Electro Funk dentro de la escena Disco también le da sus agregados.
PD: El Krautrock & Ruido Dusseldorft de Kraftwerk en temas Post Punk y el llamado "New Wave" y posteriores líneas Electronicas dónde estaba presente el característico sello de estas escenas.
@@pbelancsik Es imposible que un Kraftwerkboy entienda sobre música electrónica...los fans de Kraftwerk se basan en fanatismo, sesgos y desinformación.
PD: YMO (en especial Ryuichi Sakamoto) parte del conjunto de productores y desarrolladores más revolucionarios de los 70s.
Los pilares y pioneros de la Música Electronica que empezaron a modernizar este arte Kingsley, Dissevelt, Scott, Derbyshire, Hodgson, Cecil, Garson, Prilly (J. Perrey)...solo por citar algunos.
From now on...Afro Diasporans must keep our "Art" under "Our Complete Control"
Huh? Music is music, and it should be shared with all. Creating that 'Us and them' will make it worse in the long term.
@@el_teodoronope, Traxx Records showed how Non-Afro People subjugate and exploit Afro /Black People
RON HARDY. RESEPCT.
Disco preceded house. House continued the vibe. Electronic underground/experimental music carried it further.... then music became overtly greed/corporate driven, and things died down..... Yet, the music continues......
No Disco came first!
La escena fue la Disco pero la base electronica que forja el House es la EDM Concreta (NRG & Synthpop) de los 70s (Giorgio Moroder), la Electronica Moderna (Post Concreta, Experimental & Moog) y agregados del Electro Funk.
La musica Disco (Funk, Soul, R&B, Motown etc) no es Música Electrónica pura como la que forja la EDM.
I always heard house music originated in DC ????
.....the jungle brothas, EU, etc.
aka house is black music🫡😎
Yep, it sure is. House and techno to be exact. FBA all day, everyday🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼!!!!! Akin.
What is this? A re-edit of another documentary???
Belgium take the house muziek to the next level
Nu beat records where played in the early Manchester clubs 89 , acid Rock and stuff like that
14:30 the incumbent NYC mayor Adams declares war on drill rap, and he's black
these mayors fighting music are some wierdos
I think Mayor Daley is the Chicago mayor who shut down the parties in Chicago.
They have corporate donors to appease.
@@Shay416 what's those donors benefit in cracking down on music?
Whats Adam's beef with drill now? Please share.
@@punkisinthedetails1470 same ol' same ol', fuels violence and crime, it was in the news
How do you tell a House story and not mention DJ International or Hip House.
Yeah, it's hard to tell the whole story in under an hour. Should have been a mini-series at least.
Watch pump up the volume if you want the full history documentary
they didn't own the rights... shit
This is response to the people at the end of the video saying that Chicago, and House music was responsible for it all including inspiring all the dance music/styles to come out after.
This track came out in 81 and Juan started doing his thing pretty much at the same time. You need to recognize Detroit Techno or at least mention it.
Lets talk about Kraftwerk while were at it.
I am a huge HouseHead, but you allneed to stop with your biased nonsense. House and Techno spawned together and at the same time

There's only one thing that makes me feel sad about these amazing people... they're no longer the faces of House but a bunch of white kids, some of them are really good but also many of them are behind the DJ boot because their daddies had money to launch their careers.
Nope ---
Good try-
House music is not made in chi-town...it was hitting everywhere at the same time - but in different forms ...
New York house music(straight beat ) at the same time was different and Florida house music had more breaks ...
Chi-town was like it is now ....bad boy billy ...to busy for me a Florida boy ...
Chi town house sucks compared to Florida house /breaks ...
So please know ...Chicago ...has no pizza ,no championships..& no good house music ..
@tomjacobs5221 Fuck New York Chicago rules guffy Knock down statue of liberty and put up Sundance.

what it started as sexual liberation and racial dignity club music ended appropriated by sexually repressed and racist people clubs. misunderstood and sad mostly because unrooting of that music history when it was exported as neoconvent "modern" music.
