[@jacknjill3000]

Nervous records and so many more.

[@jacknjill3000]

Oh and Shelter Records.

[@jacknjill3000]

I helped to promote Naked Misic to the east coast when they were starting in SF. Oh and Om was putting out some gems in SF also.

Thank You Ultra Nate' for the Heads-up about this Doc. 🎉

[@gabbyautry8881]

I was lead here by her too!!!

[@neptunskid]

They mentioned Boyd Jarvis ❤️that makes me proud 👏 He was part of all of this.. Thank you 😊 💓

[@djjeanniehopper4060]

Honored to be on the label collaborating with DJ Romain and Jon Cutler "Deja Vu". And so many memories including being in studio celebrating the Underground Dance Music Artists United for Life, a project "Keep Hope Alive" Lifebeat benefit compilation co-produced with Mel Cheren and Westend Records, benefitting Lifebeat, aka the music industry fights aids. The catalog of King Street Sounds reads like the house music family of the 90's/00's Oh what a time. I played the orignal down tempo "Precious Love" version and of course Dennis', which then his remix got remixed, and so on... House is a truly living breathing organism made up of so much rich soul alchemy.

[@KingStreetSounds]

Proud to have you as part of the King Street family!

[@jacknjill3000]

The pioneers of house gave a genre of music for the future generation to dig and find out on bc there was so much good stuff that was produced back then.

[@karinewaldron9225]

That House Gospel Choir zoom made me burst into tears... That was a moment I very much wish I could have been a part of.. a moment of pure joy. 🙏👌

[@beatport]

Feel the exact same

[@GrooveAddix]

I too had the privilege of releasing a track on King Street. "Groove Addix " Black Paw".. Hisa always stood on good business unlike other house labels that you all know well. Legend!

[@KingStreetSounds]

🙌🖤

[@AlbertMarzinotto]

THANKS FOR PLAYING my song "SWEET LOVER" (Mattei & Omich Remix)

[@KingStreetSounds]

Such a great record 🔥

[@beatport]

Which King Street classic holds a special place in your heart? Big ❤ to our friends and family at Armada & King Street for trusting us with this project #HouseMusicRoyaltyAllNightLong

[@anahatalovepr2589]

Great job, a beautiful and insightful documentary with great sound and editing..

[@jonathanvancampenhout7534]

There's too many. Choosing is losing

I don't think anyone that knows King Street can name just one song so I'll name a few King Street/NiteGrooves off the top of my head starting with my favorite Danell Dixon - Dance Dance, Danell Dixon - Hallelujia, Kerri Chandler - Coro, Ananda Project - Cascades of Colour (DT/Saffron), Urban Soul - Show Me (David Morales), Urban Soul - Until We Meet Again (Hani), Dennis Ferrer - The World As I See It, Cevin Fisher - Shine The Light, Kimara Lovelace - I Luv You More (John Ciafone Dub), X Fade feat. Lavette - Good & Plenty Love (Wild Pitch Dub) There are many many others that I love but can't list them all. :)

Shout to Kai Alce for hipping me to this documentary. I picked up the Mix The Vibe Kerri Kaoz 6:23 Chandler CD in a small shop in Germany in 1997…After that, I was trying to pick up everything I could on the King Street label. God Bless you for the Music and this documentary. ONE!

[@beatport]

Kai is a legend!

It was great seeing this film in Amsterdam at the Eye!

[@beatport]

You saw it first!

[@DelmarBrowne]

@beatport I did and I'm a New Yorker 😁 Saw the special screening @ ADE!

[@beatport]

@@DelmarBrowne This is perfect, so glad you came to check out the final version!

[@DelmarBrowne]

@@beatport Loved the work and I met the editor of the film also. Thanks to Joe B.

[@stevenfrappolli3650]

Recommended by the legendary Ultra Nate - what a great film!!!! 🙏❤️

[@robertridings7620]

That was fun to watch, and pretty educational too. A few months ago, I saw the PBS doc on the history of disco and it ended talking about how House music was born from the remnants of Disco and they talked about the Paradise Garage and such. I feel like this doc picks right up where they left off. That was awesome. Really enjoyed it and wish King Street the best luck with their new deal with Armada.

[@beatport]

Haven't see the PBS doc but will check it out! Glad we could carry the torch on the story!

[@gtizzle7606]

@@beatport it was a 3 part documentary called Disco The Soundtrack of a Revolution.

Much love for watching ❤

[@djflipside33]

@ I love this history! Excited to see if you do more labels!

[@DJ13SA]

All the way from South Africa, this doccie has reignited my love and passion for the industry. We were so passionate back around 2002 when we started out playing on the Gemini 626 mixer and on SL 1200's if the budget was right, other than that the Stanton's were more cheaper for rental. All the artists and producers that appeared here made our gigs extra special back then when booked. We rocked the dance floors because of your amazing craft, thank you!!

[@AlexRoncone]

Awesome set and excellent track selection great mix over all 💯💥🔈🎹🎵💙🔥

[@beatport]

Banger after banger

[@anthonymaccaroni]

With Brian Tolan, Lancelot Rob Wonderman Andrew De Stefan and others we worked hard to support the vision of Hisa and King Street Sounds.

[@trancemusic4962]

Wonderful video with very good music 🔥💯💯🎼🔉❤

[@Audunforgard]

What an excellent documentary. Always had massive respect for King Street as a label, but now hearing and seeing the kind of work you still consistently lay down. Immense! Just wonderful to hear real house music is creating and pushing forward even in 2024. Love form Norway where most of your releases back in the day most reliably could be found in Oslo at the little Jazid vinyl store adjacent to the club.

[@KingStreetSounds]

Awesome! Thank you for the kind words, the future is bright for house music 🙌🗽

[@timchromecast]

Ultra Naté looks awesome 😊 Blaze / Barbara - Most Precious Love, a mainstream hit in Europe, would nowadays be impossible in corrupt music industry.

[@stephonharris4900]

who would've thought, Dennis Ferrer can sing. Beautiful documentary

[@WillMonotoneOfficial]

Hisa is an absolute gem that genuinely loves our music and couldn’t be happier to have been part of the King Street journey and family ❤️❤️❤️

So much more and many more DJs, producers and artists to pay homage to that are cemented in this world along with Heads that been part of this world since day one. So many memories, so much amazing music! From my teenage years to now going into my senior years. I was one of the 1000s of ppl at the last night of Garage Paradise. I will be sharing this with others. #housemusicforever #househead4life

The soundtracks of my life ❤ The documentary gives me great hope for the future and I really hope that the current generation that thinks they are listening to house when it's EDM get on the right track with quality house like KING STREET has put out from day one. Quality start to finish. Thank you so much. ❤❤

[@reneflores3711]

New Your may have house music royalty but the house music throne is Chicago

[@richmck007]

Truth be told, you guys are the pioneers, but New York took it to another level. Not to put Chicago in the shade though. In any case, the vibe was and is different. Big respect to The Chosen Few deejays who are on a higher level.

[@WWEENETWORK]

TRUTH BE TOLD...heard this from Frankie in person at the FORT in MIAMI in 2005. Chicago is NOT the PIONEER per say. Chicago had the FIRST HOUSE CLUB branding House Music. But house music was pioneered Larry was creating and mixing house music...and Frankie left to go to Chicago to expand while Larry his partner stayed in New York...getting PAID and helping to FUND CHICAGO. They agreed to do it that way..to put eggs in both vs one basket.
