Chicago house music legend Derrick Carter will be playing a set to a hometown crowd at the Pitchfork Music Festival July 16th. Mr. Carter has moved the genre of house back into popularity again and built a big following in Europe. He uses samples well and always has the sickest beats. I’m sure he’ll put a bit of extra mustard and relish on his set in front of a lot of fellow Chicagoans.

Green Velvet is one of several monikers held by Chicago house / trance / industrial DJ Curtis Jones. He walked away from a career as a chemical engineer to pursue his love of house music and beat production, and the world is better for it. Some of his cuts are legendary mid-1990’s dance club essentials, and his upcoming performance at Mamby on the Beach in his hometown on June 25th will be one of the highlights of the festival.
