R.I.P. FRANKIE KNUCKLES, 1955-2014
The Godfather of House Music was 59 years old.
Sad news: legendary house DJ Frankie Knuckles has reportedly passed away, with both DJ Deeon and Paul Johnson confirming the news.
Knuckles began DJing in New York with Larry Levan, moving to Chicago in 1977 and DJing at the famed Warehouse and then his own club, The Power Plant. Since then, he has remained an integral part of house music, past and present.
More as we have it.
