Call Of The Child

When you grow up roller skating at New York City's legendary Roxy and you're getting into the most legendary nightclubs in Manhattan at 15 years young, the music of the era tends to rub off on you a bit. "We'd pack an entire train car 30 deep and head over to teen night at Zanzibar in New Jersey, and when that spot closed at 2am we'd jump back on the train and swing through the City to catch Frankie Knuckles, Louie Vega, David Morales, Funk Flex, Biz, whoever was playin at the Sound Factory Bar that night. You knew where to go because of flyers or you heard Tony Humphries or one of those cats talking about what was poppin off on the WBLS that week. This is 'beeper era' NYC, we used payphones, none of us could afford those brick sized cellphones with the shoulder straps, we were just kids running around the streets. Doormen didn't even check i.D.s at most spots, you could walk into any dive bar and grab a beer for $2.50. You could hang out almost anywhere in Manhattan and the streets were packed til sunrise every weekend, the City had a life of its own. You had to bring a pad and pen to get girls phone numbers and if you didn't have any game and you weren't dressed right, you didn't get any numbers (and your boys would tease you the whole train ride home). New York, New Jersey, that whole scene back then was buck wild and the soundtrack from that time of my life is what resonates in my Dj sets til this day." Kenny Summit lived that life, experienced house and hiphop in the Mecca during the glory days, the back pack days, a time when the music was raw and new musical experiences were around every corner. His new single CALL OF THE CHILD is an ode to an era long past. Call it classic house, deep house, whatever label you slap on it just know at one time we all danced to one groove.
