当House已成往事

一位友人昨天去看Tresor现场,十分钟后拂袖而去。我三点钟爬起来想写点儿什么,但还是又一次沉迷于金曲,并且想为您们播放:

请仔细阅读芝加哥黑人Chuck Roberts和Larry Heard写于八十年代的比耶稣更激情的歌词。不读它,您就不懂什么是House,为什么会有House。读了它,您会发现House已成往事。Techno已成往事。Tresor已成往事。

In the beginning there was Jack ... and Jack had a groove
And from this groove came the grooves of all grooves.
And while one day viciously throwing down on his box,
Jack boldly declared "Let There Be House" and House music was born.
"I am you see, I am the creator and this is my house
And in my house there is only House Music.
But I am not so selfish because once you enter my house
it then becomes our house and our House Music.
And, you see, no one man owns house
because House Music is a universal language spoken and understood by all.
You see, House is a feeling that no one can understand
really unless you're deep into the vibe of House.
House is an uncontrollable desire to Jack your body.
And as I told you before this is our House and our House Music.
And every House you understand there is a keeper.
And in this house the keeper is Jack.
Now some of you might wonder who is Jack and what is it that Jack does.
Jack is the one who gives you the power to Jack your body!
Jack is the one who gives you the power to do the snake!
Jack is the one who gives you the key to the wiggly worm!
Jack is the one who learns you how to whop your body!
Jack is the one that can bring nations and nations of all Jackers together under one house!
You may be black, you may be white, you may be Jew or Gentile.
It don't make a difference in our house. And this is fresh!


如今的Top 100 DJ,绝大多数是站在这些巨人肩上的孩子。俱乐部和WMC依然灯红酒绿,巨人们早已沉默,而他们的唱片依然在我凌晨的床头旋转。
