Why it's here
Cajual's jazz-house architect; deep house with actual chord knowledge
Glenn Underground plays Chicago house with a jazz musician's ear on Atmosfear. Chords keep redirecting the groove instead of decorating it, so the musicianship registers in the way the tracks turn, pause and push forward. It exemplifies a sound where the records above it invented one, but almost nobody played it this well.
