The Next Generation
From the late-80s into the 90s, after star DJs like Hardy (death) and Knuckles (relocation), and clubs (Music Box, Warehouse, edge of the lookingglass) left the scene, others stepped up to take their place. DJs such as Mike Dunn (house music DJ), DJ Phatmike, and a DJ collective known as the Hot Mix 5, resident or "house" DJs for Chicago local radio station WBMX, carried on the torch and actually made it fashionable to like Disco once again. Songs like "As" by Stevie Wonder along with hard to find classics like "Deputy of Love" by Don Armando's 2nd Avenue Rhumba Band kept people on the dance floor. Newer venues like the Bop Shop, and the PropHouse were, for a time, exclusively house.
