1986
The Music Called House

The origins of what became known as House date back to DJ Frankie Knuckles' relocation from New York to Chicago in 1977 to take up residence at the nearly opened Warehouse. A new style of Dance music began to evolve out of efforts by Chicago DJs to magnify the beat in the club using synthesizers either on tape or live. For the first time in Dance music, radio played a significant role in the development of a new club genre. As the club-based music moved onto vinyl and release of records in 1984 House music began to dominate the Chicago club scene with the assistance of radio and influential club DJs. The international domination of Dance music culture by House began as Love Can't Turn Around by Farley 'Jackmaster' Funk was unleashed on the U.S. and the U.K. in the fall of 1986.
Chicago entrepreneur Robert Williams, himself a transplanted New Yorker, went looking for a DJ to help him enliven the Chicago club scene. He first approached Larry Levan who turned him down, but Levan suggested that Williams ask Levan's friend Frankie Knuckles. Frankie agreed to try out the job opportunity in Chicago and soon became the resident DJ at Chicago's Warehouse. Most Chicago audiences were unfamiliar with the cutting and mixing style of New York DJs. Frankie Knuckles quickly generated a strong following among Chicago club audiences. In 1982, after disagreements with management, Frankie Knuckles left the Warehouse for the newly opened Power Plant. The owners of the Warehouse re-styled the club as the Music Box and hired Ron Hardy, who had recently returned to Chicago from Los Angeles, to be resident DJ.
The competition between the Music Box and Power Plant was fierce. Both DJs pulled out all stops in their arsenals to engage audiences. Both Knuckles and Hardy elevated DJ manipulation of records to an art form, often using reel-to-reel tape to create their own remixed and recut versions of popular Dance hits. In local record stores such as Imports Etc. the term 'House' had been coined early on to identify the records played by Frankie Knuckles at the Warehouse and now was used to identify any of the hottest records in Chicago clubs. Both Knuckles and Hardy pushed their audiences by intensifying beats and alternating pushing volumes on the treble and the bass. Sometimes a crowd would be kept dancing by a simple repeated bass line, eager for what would come next.
From 1981 through 1986, radio station WBMX was also a major player in development of the sound of Chicago's Dance music. Five DJs including Kenny 'Jammin' Jason, Ralphi Rosario, Steve 'Silk' Hurley, Mickey 'Mixin' Oliver, and Farley 'Jackmaster' Funk became known as the Hot Mix 5. They would play mixes of the latest and hottest Dance music on the Chicago scene. At one point WBMX claimed audiences of over half a million for their mixes. These mixes were strongly influenced by European synth-based Dance music in the early 80's.
Farley 'Jackmaster' Funk, aside from being a Hot Mix radio DJ, was also a resident DJ in a club called the Playground. He began bringing a synthesized drum machine to play live along the bottom of Dance records. At the same time, Frankie Knuckles was mixing recorded drum machine tracks with other Dance records. This enhancement of powerful synth-drum would form the basis for recorded House. It did not take long for Chicago clubgoers to realize that they could create their own club music using relatively cheap synthesizers. In 1984 Jamie Principle recorded his own homemade track called Your Love that was suddenly in demand via cassette (the only medium he had available to record and distribute his song) across the city. Around the same time Jesse Saunders, a club DJ with connections to a local record label, recorded and released on vinyl a rhythm track titled On and On.
Within months the floodgates opened and Chicago clubs were filled with the sounds of homemade amateur rhythm tracks with or without vocals. Jesse Saunders, Chip E, and Larry Heard were just a few of the pioneers that became recording stars in the city of Chicago. Steve 'Silk' Hurley was also an early recording pioneer of House. He reworked Isaac Hayes' classic I Can't Turn Around as an instrumental track. The track made its way to Farley 'Jackmaster' Funk who added vocals by Darryl Pandy and renamed it Love Can't Turn Around. In the summer and fall of 1986 Love Can't Turn Around became the first House track to hit the Pop top ten in the U.K. and reach the top twenty of the American Dance charts. House as an international force had arrived.

As 1986 began, the Eurythmics had outlasted New Wave to become part of the Pop and Dance mainstream. Aretha Franklin was riding a new career peak as Soul singer extraordinaire and Dance diva. Their collaboration on Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves capitalized on an independent woman zeitgeist in the Dance music world. Following their full-length album Age Of Consent, Bronski Beat released the EP Hundreds and Thousands that included an irreverent, erotic remake of Donna Summer's I Feel Love that featured Bronski lead singer Jimmy Somerville duetting with Soft Cell's Marc Almond.

With his phenomenal Funk music of the 60s recognized as a fertile trove for sampling widely in rap releases, James Brown stormed back to the top of the Pop, R&B and Dance music worlds on Living In America. Production and songwriting help from Dan Hartman insured attention in clubs. Siouxsie and the Banshees were one of the most enduring groups from the British Punk revolution of the late 70's. Cities In Dust with its chiming synthesizers became their first major American Dance hit. With a few Pop hits already under her belt, Whitney Houston scored on Dance charts with the bright, Narada Michael Walden production How Will I Know.

Following the demise of his duo Yaz with Alison Moyet, Vince Clarke briefly participated in the group the Assembly and released one single with singer Paul Quinn before putting together a new duo, Erasure, with singer Andy Bell. As with previous Vince Clarke efforts, their music is heavily synthesizer based and exquisitely melodic. Janet Jackson retooled her image with the help of producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis into that of a strong, confident young woman on What Have You Done For Me Lately. Throwing together an insistent "Amadeus Amadeus" chant, a Dance diva vocal bridge, and roaring synth drums, Falco created a worldwide smash with Rock Me Amadeus.

The Pet Shop Boys took a somewhat lengthy path to their first success. West End Girls was first released in 1984 with production work by Bobby O. It had some minor success in dance clubs, but the Pet Shop Boys soon faded back into obscurity. Stephen Hague was hired to rework West End Girls and produce additional material for a first album. This time the song was a smash in dance clubs and on the radio. 8 children of the Wolfgramm family (out of 17) formed the group the Jets who rocketed to popularity with the Bubblegum Dance sound of Crush On You. Following a gradual shift from Jazz-Fusion to Pop-Dance, British group Level 42 scored with Something About You.

The Art Of Noise headed forward on their own without producer Trevor Horn. The combination of Duane Eddy's twangy guitar, Henry Mancini's Peter Gunn theme, and the Art of Noise's own idiosyncratic sense of Dance music resulted in a distinctively left-field success. In the midst of rumors of Boy George's heroin addiction, Culture Club released Move Away, produced by R&B and Dance music veteran Arif Mardin, a straightforward, state-of-the-art, Synth-Dance record. Veering aggressively toward mainstream Pop-Dance, Miami Sound Machine abandoned most of their Latin roots on Bad Boy.

In the summer of 1986, Digging Your Scene by the Blow Monkeys brought the intensifying concern about the AIDS epidemic onto the dance floor. Information Society had humble beginnings at Macalester College in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1982. The loosely knit band recorded an album in 1984. The track Running was discovered by underground Dance dj's and by the summer of 1986 it had emerged on national Dance charts. Produced by Daniel Lanois, Peter Gabriel's album So featured the R&B flavored Rock of Sledgehammer, a worldwide smash hit single.

Gwen Guthrie wrote, produced and sang her stunning declaration of female independence Ain't Nothin' Goin' On But the Rent. A new genre, New Jack Swing, was born as traditional R&B began to incorporate Hip-hop rhythms and vocal styles. The bouncy but lyrically pointed Rumors by Timex Social Club helped point in this future direction. Bananarama signed on with the Stock, Aitken, and Waterman production team and scored a massive hit with the bouncy, Hi-NRG remake of the Shocking Blue chestnut Venus.

After House music dominated club underground in Chicago through much of the early 1980's, Farley 'Jackmaster' Funk, with production assistance from Jesse Saunders, finally brought it into the U.S. Dance charts and the U.K. Pop top 10 in the form of a remake of Isaac Hayes' I Can't Turn Around titled Love Can't Turn Around . Jeffrey Osborne contributed to consciousness-raising of club audiences with his plea for an end to apartheid in South Africa on Soweto. A groundbreaking union of Rock and Rap took place when Run-D.M.C. collaborated with Aerosmith for a remake of Aerosmith's own Walk This Way.

October

As Hip-hop moved steadily closer to the mainstream, Def Jam, one of the leading Hip-hop record labels, expanded into an older, soulful style with the release of Oran 'Juice' Jones The Rain. Following their success producing Janet Jackson, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis helped bring the Human League back to the top of the charts on the sparkling, elegant Human. Cameo, one of the few classic 70's funk bands to maintain their audience into the 80's, reached a commercial peak with the sharp, entertaining Funk of Word Up.

November

Hi-NRG, characterized by instantly catchy melody coupled with a quick, pounding beat, became one of the dominant genres of Dance music in the late 1980's. Both the Communards and Dead Or Alive expertly represented the genre. The Communards featured ex-Bronski Beat vocalist Jimmy Somerville's soaring falsetto in a glorious remake of Thelma Houston's Don't Leave Me This Way. Dead Or Alive, with the Stock, Aitken and Waterman production team, continued their pulsing synthesized beats and Pete Burns' aggressive vocals on Brand New Lover. Brilliant, a Dance supergroup of sorts with the ex-leader of the band Killing Joke, a future member of the KLF, and a former vocalist for the Dream Academy, scored a hit with Somebody.
