Soul Revival Spotlight Mix - June 2008

The Spotlight Mix for June will be a continuation of House Music summer madness. This time I will shine the light on another living legend. Some of the tracks I will play will be instantly recognizable while others could be a surprise – in terms of this individual’s association with the tracks. This man is responsible for some of dance music’s most incredible offerings. I am personally proud to say that he and I are alumni of the same high school in Chicago: Lindblom Technical High School. This is significant (especially for the Chicago heads) because this was one of those schools where a large majority of the student body was a fan of House Music. To have this person be alumni is, simply stated, huge! He became the dance music “wrecking ball” in the early 1990’s, at the time when House Music began to gain national attention. The timing could not have been better since he gained prominence by remixing the hits for some of the biggest names in the game (Michael Jackson, Paula Abdul, CeCe Peniston, and Prince, among others). On June 7, 2008, 10PM – 12AM, the spotlight shines brightly on the four-time Grammy nominee: STEVE “SILK” HURLEY.
