LARRY HEARD :: ELECTRONIC MUSIC IN THE 80s




Many rumors are circulated about Larry Heard — the man who put the ‘deep’ in house music. The legend himself talks about his true history: how he swapped his drums for machines and became a part of the blossoming Chicago house scene of the mid-’80s. Doing his “research,” he met up with vocalist Robert Owens, with whom he formed the infamous Fingers Inc. This self-proclaimed “late bloomer” has stayed spiritual, soulful, and productive. Can you feel it?
