Mike Dunn 'My House From All Angles' (Blackball Muzik)
One of the true originals of Chicago house music, producer and DJ Mike Dunn was a resident at Frankie Knuckles’ Warehouse, and he’s just kept on keeping on ever since. True to the club spirit, Dunn’s career has been based on 12” releases: extraordinarily, his second album, ‘My House From All Angles’, comes some 27 years after his first effort. Almost nothing has changed in the interim: it’s all about drum machine, acid riff, repeated vocal, the odd disco loop – job’s a good ‘un. Kids a third of Dunn’s age go mad trying to create retro house, but he does it effortlessly, because it’s all he’s ever needed to do. After all, it’s not broken, so why bother fixing it? Joe Muggs
