Show 186- The Steve Silk Hurley Megamix
Get set to Jack Your Body with our “Steve Silk Hurley Megamix” – created by Costa Lakoumentas for Neon Nights.
Initially developing a strong reputation early on in his career as one of Chicago’s hottest DJ’s, “Silk” became known for his “pioneering “reproduction”, a then new form of remixing, where the original music track is completely replaced with a brand new composition and rhythm track.
Some of his earliest remixes, such as “Good Life” by Inner City topped the charts, including Hurley’s solo track “Jack Your Body”, which reached #1 on the U.K.charts for 2 weeks.
Hurley’s ability to musically embellish a song and take it to new dimensions has earned him the well-deserved title as one of the world’s all-time top remixers. This is evident in some of his most prized works, including: Michael Jackson’s ”Jam” and “Remember The Time”, Prince’s “Get Off” & our very own Dannii Minogue’s opus “Baby Love”.
“Silk’s” passion for music does not end, however, with remixes. His freestyle creativity expands to that of a notably outstanding songwriter / producer, penning most of his chart-topping hits. Hurley has had a pivotal hand in the success of many artists with his writing & production on such projects as CeCe Peniston’s “We Got a Love Thang“, Kym Sims’ “Too Blind To See It” …. & many more.
Prepare to work it out for an hour to the silkiest Chicago house of the 90’s.
