TRIBUTE / WICKED HYSTERIA by THE JAK

*1 PER PERSON* *Limited Pressing** Interpretations created by the Jak. A homage to Lil Louis & Dj Rush. Made In Chicago.

"Experiencing music collectively is a critical part of absorbing it's meaning and it's unique ability to communicate abstract ideas that resonate differently with different individuals."

the a- side is a Lil Louis production recreated by hand by 
playing the notes differently then the original concept
with different drums, additional FM synth strings
and altering the sound preset that was sequenced at
a certain tone...the original til this day is still unreleased
called "Homework" that (the jAk) renamed "Tribute" 
to pay homage to the song and sound from the era of
underground experimental house.

the b-side is from a recording captured live from a party 
that (jAk) planned to go see DJ Rush at and brought in a 
handheld micro-cassette recorder in 1996.
many years later recently he went back to listen to the party 
from the cassette he digitized and took it upon himself to 
attempt a recreation with an interpretation adding ideas 
on the fly not knowing if it was on point or not but did his
best knowing he wouldn't be able to come close to the original
he has that's also unreleased but did the best he could..
(jAk) never knew the title of the production so he gave 
his version a title..Wicked Hysteria.

both musical concepts are absolutely crucial to Chicago..
