Central Station Records, MRA Entertainment and TRAX Records have just unleashed a new album by one of house music’s innovators; Keith Farley (Farley Jackmaster Funk), called ‘The Best of Jackmaster Funk.’ This album includes a bunch of music releases that give a true account of the roots of modern dance music and club culture. It is a collection selected by pioneer DJ Keith Farley himself, consisting of his most notable work over the last thirty years. Its release coincides with the DVD release of ‘Maestro’; a film about the formation of modern dance culture; featuring Keith Farley, along with other house legends Larry Levan, Danny Tenaglia, Frankie Knuckles and Louie Vega. He began recording in 1984 with the single “Jack the Bass,” and has continually churned out new singles and albums over the following years. Now considered a king and legend of house music, Keith Farley has combined his greatest tracks and favourite hits for fans to enjoy. For a lover of house music, new and old, this album is a classic to add to your collection. For those who are not so into house music this album may come across as a little cheesy, but still an interesting listen.
