Thanks to all of the downloaders who helped me get past the first round of the competition and also to the voters who selected my set as the winner.  There are loads of talented DJs on this site, so I tried my best to come up with something unique and fun.   As always I used Ableton live to put this 27 minute set together.  I used parts of about  15 tracks along with 14 channels in live, my own synth, basslines, pecussion and effects to create a unique dance music experience.   Although Frankie knuckles is a tremendous musical talent and DJ i found it hard to use one of his tracks in my set but wound up using  parts of two along with parts of an interview he did a few years ago for the intro and outro.  I also used a great  melodic breakbeat track by FL Fagos, who is a very talented and unique producer/DJ that features his work on this site.  God Bless Frankie.  He was a pioneer and gave his life to the art of DJing before it was considered a cool or respectable profession.  Those hearing this for the first time, I hope you enjoy!

2457....magic bring in. EXECUTED LIKE A MAN POSSESSED. 1 LONG TRACK. AND ENDING WITH A MAN SO RESPECTED. WOW CLASSIC MIX NEEDS TO BE PLAYED OUT IN PUBLIC. WHAT IMAGINATION TO LACE HIS VOICE BEGGINING AND END. WITH THE TWANG RIDING BEHIND HIM. SERIOUSLY THIS MINI MIX CAN MAKE YOUR BRAIN BURST JUST ON PRINCIPAL. 100 PERCENT PERFECTION. NOT BIAS AT ALL IF YOU MIXED OR DID GARBAGE ID CALL YOU OUT. I DONT REP YOU CAUSE WERE GREAT FRIENDS IN LIFE....BUT BECAUSE YOU ARE A FREAKING TRACK MANIPULATING GENIUS. THAT JUST MIXED PERFECT OAKEY TRACKS WITH MELBORNE FRANKIE KNUCKLES. FAGOS YOURSELF AND SASHA AND MADE 1 DAMN TRACK,,,,NUFF SAID IM OUT

NICE! You used the FACT TV interview as well, as an INTRO. In my mix, it was closer to the end, as a "summary". Glad to see this new generation, discovering the ashes of Disco, and the Chicago Underground, and infusing it with modern interpretation. Each of us, carries a candle, lit by his former torch that guided our ways. Best of Luck in the competition!

Nice work dude... Hope you get into the top 3 as the mixes that have the most downloads at the mo arent any kind of house-mixes & are an insult to the big man not a tribute... Good Luck & hope my download helps you :)
