      Overdue overview of a towering New York house music figure. Breaking out with 1990's "Hot Music", recorded as 'Soho', Pal Joey pioneered a distinctive breaks- and sample-heavy style of very deep house. Releases came - and still come - largely through his Loop D'Loop label, with excursions on other now-classic NY labels under aliases like Earth People and DreamHouse. Totally essential release.
