Larry Heard

Alleviated Records, Memphis, USA

Many things have been circulating about Larry Heard - the man who we owe the meaning of 'deep' in house music. He is responsible for numerous classics and deserves to be fanatically worshipped by music lovers all around the world. Here the legend himself talks about his history, how he changed his drums for machines, and how he listened to the radio and finally got into the club circuit of the house scene in Chicago of the mid-'80s. Doing his 'research' - as Larry Heard puts it with the thoroughness of a wholehearted musician - he met soulmates like Robert Owens with whom he gave birth to Fingers Inc.. Up to this day the self-proclaimed late bloomer has stayed a decent, soulful and still productive mastermind amidst the turbulent history of house.
