this has been kicking my ass over the last 24 hours. brutal.

Chuck Roberts, the creator of the most iconic vocal sample in house music history has passed away. Stripped from Rhythm Controll's 1987 track "My House," his clarion call to the dancefloor has ended-up in a kajillion mixes and tracks over the years. Beyoncé even swiped it for her Renaissance tour. Not bad, Mr. Roberts. Not bad at all.
