Train Wreck Mix

Rahaan

Bring The Heat, Jiscomusic, KAT, Chicago

Rahaan is not only a DJ, he's the DJ's DJ. Being a son of the Windy City, he was there, when House and the aftermath of Disco shook the city's foundation. You know the name of the game: Trax Records, DJ International, Knuckles, Hardy, Warehouse, Muzic Box, Acid, Mr. Fingers and this was fresh. Rahaan got the mixing bug in 1988 and started out doing parties with the Chuck Brothers, before he took a break, moved to Wisconsin and collected records like a madman. 'Rare like hence teeth"' could be a stamp on most of the things in his collection. Back in chicago, he got back on the club circuit again, playing various guest spots like 'Soul In The Hole' and a residence at the 'Budda Lounge'. What got him recognized outside of his devoted fan base in Illinois, were his mixes for Deep House Page or Bring The Heat as well as his customized basement rocking Disco edits. Some of them made their way to the British island via Jiscomusic or KAT. While still cutting and slicing the tape, his unique skills brought him as far as Japan and to the world-renowned Southport Weekender. Toot-toot, beep-beep!
