DJ INTERNATIONAL
RECORDS
Independent label: D.J.
International Records One of the larger two original Chicago
house-music labels (the other being Trax Records). Founded by musician Rocky Jones in the
mid-1980s, it released lots of deep, hard, soulful, and acid house tracks. In
the late 1980s, it released many hip-house tracks as well. The label’s releases
built one of history’s everlasting foundations of house music. International
hits included Joe Smooth's “Promised
Land” and "Fast" Eddie Smith's “Acid
Thunder,” who, together with Kenny "Jammin"
Jason, produced 1987’s smash “Can U Dance,” one of house
music’s breakthroughs and one of its everlasting hymns. Tyree’s “Turn up
the Bass” was one of the first and best hip-house tracks.
Some releases were
licensed to Westside Records in Britain.
Distributed By London and CBS
Records.
