Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Inspired by a new wave of producers who were successfully expanding upon the Chicago house music blueprint by adding state of the art production techniques and a cosmopolitan edge to art form, Guidance embraced the emerging globalization of electronic music culture by assembling a diverse and talented roster of artists from across Europe, the UK, and North America. The label released its first two singles, Free Energy "Happiness" and Projekt: PM¹s vocoded house classic "When the Voices Come" in May 1996, and haven¹t looked back since. It followed with a string of timeless twelve inches that helped launched the careers of house music legends such as: Austin "Abacus" Bascom, Deep Sensation, Blueboy, Fresh and Low, Kevin Yost, and Chicago¹s very own Glenn Underground, prompting Muzik Magazine to proclaim Guidance "the best new house label in the world" in its 1997 year end issue. Although Guidance initially made its mark in the industry on the strength of its deep house singles, the label¹s goal has always been to release a diverse spectrum of soulful urban electronic music encompassing but not limited to house, dub, downtempo, hip hop, lounge, electro and world influenced sounds. All three of the label¹s founding partners came of age in club culture during the late 1980¹s when things were much more open and DJ¹s weren¹t afraid to take chances and rock reggae, hip hop, house, freestyle, electro and techno all in the same set. Guided by the mantra that "good music is good music regardless of the sub-genre assigned to it by a journalist or a record store clerk", the label encouraged its artists to indulge themselves and include different styles and tempos of music on their releases. This open minded music policy soon paid off in spades when Blueboy¹s "Remember Me" an infectious downtempo mash up of Marlena Shaw¹s soulboy classic "Woman of the Ghetto" became a world wide smash hit, remaining on the top ten of the British pop charts for six straight weeks, and achieving gold record sales status in several countries.
