Dopo aver scaldato il cuore di appassionati più o meno nostalgici con un set alla Boiler Room da veri fuoriclasse, Kenny “Dope” Gonzalez e Little Louie Vega tornano al centro dei riflettori degli appassionati della musica house con la notizia dell’imminente uscita, programmata per il prossimo 21 Settembre, della loro selezione “House Masters”, la prestigiosa serie di compilation della britannica Defected che in passato ha visto protagonisti Dennis Ferrer, Osunlade e MK. Il lavoro dello storico duo statunitense presenta quaranta tracce, tra versioni originali (prodotte sotto i loro diversi alias) e remix di brani dei vari Simply Red, Saint Etienne e The Brand New Heavies, e non vuole ritagliarsi il semplice ruolo di “best of”, piuttosto quello di retrospettiva dei brani che vanno assolutamente conosciuti e di quelli che hanno avuto poco successo, ma che avrebbero meritato tutt’altra sorte. Almeno a detta dei Masters At Work.
