At 1:50 he asks to think back to when we first heard of house music. I first of heard of house music around 1993 and to me it sounded like a mixture of latin freestyle and funk and all I knew is that I loved it. I would stay up late on Saturdays as a kid because a radio station here in Southern California had a show called Power Tools. I would record the show and dance to it in the bathroom. Theres nothing I love more than house music.

A nice 101 clinic on some music history.
I'm fortunate to be from East Lansing which placed me right between Chi and Detroit so growing up all through the 90s gave me the greatest privilege ever to experience and be part of this culture. I've been making music since about 1996 when I was 18 and I still pull inspiration from all the massive house parties and warehouse parties and the mood of simply driving through Detroit or Chicago looking for the spot of the after parties at 3 am.
You cannot replace those vibes or experiences and you cannot have them when you're in your 40s the way you do when you're a teenager or in your 20s.
If you're reading this comment and you're in those early years of experiencing this music as a noobie my best advice is to simply immerse yourself in it and get lost. Absorb all of it and have no musical boundaries! I'm a junglist at heart but techno is in my DNA and House is in my soul. Know no boundaries!
This music has shaped my life in so many subconscious ways. House, Techno, Jungle.

James tells the story with great passion and nostalgia. Great that he has developed his F9 audio sample software company’ replicating the sounds of this era. James has a great voice for audible. He could tell any story, and you listen 🤩

I wish there was more of James Wiltshire. He has such a great way to deliver knowledge even for a beginner. Great stuff!

not the 909 replaced the Linn Drum, man, that was the 707. The 909 came in much later (Chip E., Thompson & Lenoir and of course with all that HipHouse business)(Chip sold his 909 to Adonis and regrets it till today, lol - he keeps wondering "what was I thinking?!"). Then another thing is, you have to see house culture and house music as two different things back then. Also it is always said that the Warehouse gave name to this genre. The Warehouse closed in 1983. Jessie's release which wasn't even meant as House if you ask me but was more of a bootleg came out in 1984 (but I'm glad he let me make the cover art for his 35yrs Anniversary release - the MPC on it is mine hehehe). The first release to have that name House on the cover, was Chip E. with his Jacktracks. That was in 1985 and the Warehouse was closed for two years then. Joe Smooth told me some days ago, there is no godfather because it all came from the community. And Chip always kept away from calling himself a godfather, but rather uses the term architect. The Godfather of House is God. Let me put it that way.

What a beatifically crafted esoteric documentary, I feel as though it has been made just for me, why why why don't we see stuff like like on TV?

I never realized that the drum keys on a 909 are mechanical keyboard switches. The sound they make when pressed is amazing.
