Where it leads
Minneapolis Sound
Linn drums, Oberheim stabs, no horn section: funk rebuilt by one city's worth of overlapping bands.
Trax Records
The Chicago label at the origin of house: cheap pressings, foundational tracks.
Chicago House
A drum machine, a cheap sampler and a church-raised voice — the blueprint every dance record still borrows.
