Ambient music. Sure, there was Brian Eno and many others starting back in the 70s who made atmospheric music that influenced future musicians. But I think most can agree that when it comes to the genre ‘ambient house’ – it all started with Larry Heard. The singles ‘Mystery Of Love’ by Fingers Inc and Washing Machine / Can You Feel It / Beyond The Clouds by Mr. Fingers were made during the start of Chicago’s house music scene but existed in a world all their own.

From the liner notes for the Fingers Inc album ‘Another Side’: “Jack means nothing to me”, claimed Larry at the height of Chicago’s jackmania, “Our songs are about our experiences and beliefs.”
