ABOUT THE ARTWORK:

Growing up listening to songs like the Percolator, I’ve always felt a connection to House. The rhythm of the music inspires me so much creatively. So I decided to do some research into the man who started it all, DJ Frankie Knuckles.

In 1977 Frankie took a DJ job at the Chicago club, the Warehouse. His club sets were so notorious that they began asking for his “warehouse music” in records stores. The name was eventually shorten to “house music” and the genre was born.

Frankie went on to host his own club The Power Plant from 83’ to 85.’ Without his original remixes of disco, R&B, post-punk, and synth music; the culture behind electronic dance music would cease to exist!!

So say hello to my depiction of the creator, the Godfather of House, Frankie Knuckles.
