Biography of Boo Williams

Boo Williams was born and raised in Chicago growing up on the south side...where all the heavy hitters come from. Born in '67, Boo is in his mid thirties and loving every second of it. His musical expressions are inspired by the seventies era from disco to some of the best jazz he could ever listen to back then. Influences like Patrice Adams, Roy Ayers, The Tramps, Gil Scott Heron and Captain Sky - his heroes from back then.

In the early 80s Boo started to take his spinning seriously and started playing in Chicago at some of the hottest spots such as hotels like the Bismarck, Ascott, Congress and clubs like the Powerhouse, where legends like Lil' Louis, Frankie Knuckles and Ron Hardy were performing. Not long after that another person stepped up to the plate - Mr. Fingers aka Larry Heard. He set the standards for Chicago house music with hits like 'A Path', 'Can You Feel It?', 'Waterfall', 'Bring Down The Walls', 'Mysteries of Love' and 'A Corner Called Jazz.' He is the reason for Boo making music today.

Boo Williams has built impressive old school credentials with classic house releases and relentless Dj touring. As one of the premier representatives of the Chicago sound, Boo has headlined the world's most famous clubs including Ministry of Sound (London), Fuse (Brussels), and E-Works (Berlin) as well as countless events in every major US market from NYC to San Francisco. His recent headlining set at the Homelands Festival (Ireland) saw Boo educating 40,000 students on quality house music - past, present, and future. Boo's production work ranges from tek house classics on Relief and disco based dance floor cuts on Cajual to Strictly Jaz Unit styled tracks for Ovum, Guidance and Nite Life Collective. His most recent releases, including his work for Three to Five effortlessly blends elements of all three to create a style that is uniquely his own.

Comment: I would recommend this mix to anyone wanting to learn more about the roots of modern House music.
Boo confirms his old school credentials by laying down an energetic mix of retro sounds.The mix takes in original Disco,Jazz,Afrobeat and even an instrumental mix of "Two Tribes" by Frankie Goes To Hollywood,a track that was hammered by many Chicago/Detroit DJ's back in the mid eighties.He drops the BPM's at the end by spinning Rick Holmes' "Remember To Remember"...A fitting finale to this history lesson from a Chicago legend!

One minor complaint would be Boo's over-use of the EQ's which might prove a distraction to some,but overall this is well worth a listen.

Comment: well, if you've ever seen boo spin you know he isn't flawless in his beatmatching - but then consider that he spins REAL disco and that ain't too easy - he loves his EQs - and you need to love that track selection! real groovin chicago soul
