    Defected
      • 1. Frankie Knuckles & Jamie Principle - Your Love
      • 2. Sounds Of Blackness - The Pressure (Frankie Knuckles Classic Mix)
      • 3. Loose Ends - Hangin' On A String (Frankie Knuckles Club Mix)
      • 4. Frankie Knuckles - It's Hard Sometime (FK Classic Club)
      • 5. Hercules & Love Affair - Blind (Frankie Knuckles Remix)
      • 6. Frankie Knuckles & Jamie Principle - Baby Wants To Ride
      • 7. Chaka Khan - Ain't Nobody (Hallucinogenic Version)
      • 8. Frankie Knuckles - Too Many Fish (feat Adeva - Classic Frankie Version)

      It's been a long time coming, but finally Defected's producer and remixer-focused House Masters series has turned its attention to the undisputed Godfather of House himself, the late, great Frankie Knuckles. This first part (of two) fittingly opens with the track that originally set out his melodious, warm, colourful and loved-up trademark sound, the Jamie Principle collaboration 'Your Love', before flitting between genuine anthems (legendary remixes of Loose Ends' 'Hangin' On a String' and 'Blind' by Hercules and Love Affair, the sleazy, acid house-era 'Baby Wants To Ride', the exceptional 'Hallucinogenic Mix' of Chaka Khan's 'Ain't Nobody') and arguably more overlooked gems (the garage-house wonders that are his remixes of Adeva and Sounds of Blackness).
