DJ Rashad - Love U Found

Earlier this year a friend of mine got me really into juke/footwork music—a sort of club that originated in Chicago. It’s obsession-forming music, frenetic and odd, and once you get used to the very specific template that it draws from, nothing else ever really seems to scratch the itch. I can listen to this stuff for hours and hours, and it frequently puts me in an almost meditative, trance-like state. If I absolutely had to pick a favorite artist in this particular style (fortunately I don’t, but for our purposes here, I will)—it’d probably be DJ Rashad. Here are a couple of my favorite songs of his (including a track with the also-brilliant DJ Spinn).
