he's a little Italian boy from Brooklyn!!!!! deep house was more emotional, thank you for this wonderful explanation of HOUSE MUSIC, pre disco, pro disco, CHUKA KHAN, and yes, it was a foot stomping, church setting vibe, ALVIN ALLEY, oh yes, the energy was unbelievable, emotional, joyful and miraculous!!!!! I danced at after hour clubs from the 1970s on and always sang along. The entire room was like one voice!!!! For me, it def felt like CHURCH!!!!! I remember wearing a whistle around my neck. Now, in 2021, I am a 71 yr old Sicilian woman from Brooklyn, living in VT and every morning I play the songs from the Paradise Garage and dance with my 3 year old grandson because I want him to experience the music I love. Your spirit is amazing, your love of music is such a blessing. The magic is in the music and the music is in you. Thanks, thanks, thanks
Twilo head here. What a time...what a place...what a sound. Like Danny said...we can talk about it for a month...but no words can really encapsulate it. It needed to be felt and heard. Truly a special moment in the history of anything to do with music, sound, energy, spirituality, etc etc. If I could bring back one span of time from any era...it would be Twilo from 1998-2001. "It's not trance...it's magic." PS...the guys who currently run Muzika in Hell's Kitchen (west side) are doing their best to recreate it...especially with the 4 sided stacks, as Danny describes here. I actually heard Danny at Muzika recently. I felt maybe 1/10th of what I felt at Twilo. Really had a good time. They're trying. I give them props. But 2024 aint 1999. ;) It is what it is. We'll always have West 27th Street. :)
Great interview! so much history...I remember Palash and I taking the greyhound bus every chance we got..straight after work, from DC to NY.. to hear your set at Twilo. Come back the next day on Greyhound, and straight into the studio a.k.a my parents basement LOL! Talk about inspiration :) - Thank you for everything! xo
I think barely any modern djs think about the music and do the things he's talking about regarding feeling the music. It reflects in the vibe of modern clubs
Thanks a lot for this great interview. Danny is respectful, careful in his wording, always generous in sharing. I've always been a huge fan of Danny, and sadly I have always missed him and never heard him play for real. I have a lot of his records and mixtapes that I played a hundred times in my bedroom and on the road. But being from France, although the house music scene is big here, the culture of extended DJ sets is small compared to North America. Danny does not come to France usually, because people don't know him here. That's my biggest regret in my clubbing life, not being able to hear him. There are not many artists I really look up to, to me he is the quintessence of the DJ, playing with your emotions, taking you on a tour, which even became his trademark. The closest I ever got to hear him was when I spent one year in Montreal, STEREO was my home for many week-ends, but somehow I missed him. Maybe I'll get to hear him one day. And if I don't, that's fine too, knowing he brought so much enjoyment to so many people on this Earth. THANK YOU DANNY!
Brilliant interview with probably the most influential DJ theres is on the house scene, not really a progressive DJ, just a guy who understands and gets music like no one else, saw him at Homelands in 2001, he did his two hand held torches things with no other lights in the tent and it blew my mind, played over a deep pounding bass track, legendary.
My favourite DJ. Comes across so well here - really humble. I remember buying his Tourism album on vinyl and loving the dark twisted vibes of the songs. Great natural feel for music, very cultured palette and he always enjoyed himself. l lots of live edits done on the night. Saw him once in London at Home and was magical.
Inre: Global Underground Athens - loved it from the first time I popped it into my Discman (!) lol... thanks for this interview; brought back a lot of good memories for a Tunnel/Twilo regular.
My favorite Dj I live in nyc he's my hometown Dj he's made so many nights special for me some I'll never forget...to young to have seen Larry... the maestro
The secret sauce behind the GU mix comps in the early days allegedly was that due to the incredible cost of licensing a lot of the tracks back then (that dj's actually wanted to pick) they were asked to pick more obscure tunes, and that quickly became the style and it worked really well. That and also the djs loved going on holiday. My favorite memory of Danny was watching him play at Space in Ibiza, and the one track that always reminds me of him is Minimal Funk 4 - "Definition of House" which I think is actually on one of those GU mixes... absolute stone cold banger to get the place rocking! Great interview.
Thank you for this great interview! It brought back lots of memories and anecdotes. I´m a DJ myself and I happened to live about four blocks from the Zanzibar in Newark, NJ and I could hear Tony Humphries pump all those bombs all night. I also went to NYC to most of the clubs that Danny mentioned. The crowds were so amazing, even though the sound were not as loud as today's systems, but they sounded so amazing, that they gave me goosebumps all night long! Those were the best years of my life! Today, at 52, I'm still spinning whenever I get the chance and I still have almost all my vinyl records with me!
I caught him a few times at Be Yourself at Vinyl. His programming was bonkers. He was dropping the spoken word of Vincent Price on the intro to thriller and at the end of it looped him saying “alive” over and over again… then dropped out all music and mixed in daft punk’s “alive”… which is an instrumental but the real house heads went bonkers. So many great memories of that party ❤
Danny… The One and Only!!!! Is great to listen to him speaking about the history he has been building by himself!!!! 🤯🤯🤯 Didn’t know about Buttom Heavy was a “rejected” remix… OMG That’s exactly about how to convert a bad situation into a something great!!!!! GENIOUS!!!!! RESPECT FOREVER DT!!!
hey dude! so within the last week, Ive seen your episodes on Steve Lawler and now Danny. Amazing choice for bringing on some of the best of the best! Looking forward to one on Sasha and Digweed ;)
Great interview, Saw Danny do a 24 hour set at Stereo in Montreal, Twilo was also good times. On another note a stationary camera setup or something along the lines of the 9 club setup would be less distracting for interviews.
OMG. When it was Danny vs Danny @ ARC... he opened his set, by talking on the mic.... but he had this “track” that was just background noise..... it sounded like you were on a dock, in the middle of the night, and you could hear this bell ringing, then there would be this fog horn sound, like it came from a boat...... but Danny T would romp on that isolator bass knob.... it was amazing ..... Then later in his set..... he drops this track, with this woman saying .....” I like them boom boom beats” , then it would drop back in. Fricking amazing. And yeah ...... he use to play for 24hours at winter music festival, down in Miami...
Production tip, color match your cameras. The white balance on that roving shot is annoying. The interview is spot on and thanks for this. Erick Morillo is an incel junky, just throwing that out there at random.
oh please no michael alig. they didnt care about music at all. keoki at one point i really kinda liked. esp some of his remixes. but i wonder if the michael alig thing didnt happen. and bring so much attention what was really really bad in nyc. if things would still be in manhattan.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful reflection. House music is a lifelong relationship, and your grandson is going to have an amazing music taste!
Bless you for sharing your music, there is nothing like “schooling” another generation with older tracks.
you are a best mama in world :>
Twilo head here.
What a time...what a place...what a sound.

I can only assume you caught Sasha and Mr digweed a time or two there?
Great interview! so much history...I remember Palash and I taking the greyhound bus every chance we got..straight after work, from DC to NY.. to hear your set at Twilo.

Thanks for sharing this awesome comment. Sounds like good memories
Love your music man.. Both of yu guys
Awesome brotha! 😎❤️😎
Saeed you are a fuckin prog legend!!!!
I think barely any modern djs think about the music and do the things he's talking about regarding feeling the music. It reflects in the vibe of modern clubs
I saw John Digweed and Danny at Twilo in 2001. Such a great night!
For the ones who knows and experiented a Danny Tenaglia marathon set at Stereo Montréal... feel blessed, long life DT
Thank you for this interview. Need more of these guys telling stories about the 80s and 90s scene. In particular twilo
I love Danny Tenaglia, We're cut from the same dirty rag.
love this
...work can wait... MY MAN! Preach! Much love from (currently, northern Peru), *A.
Hope you enjoy!
I’ve had the privilege to hear Danny at Tunnel, Vinyl and many other venues and to this day, those were the best days of my life. Thank you, Danny!
wow... amazing interview! Thank you!
Thanks!
Fantastic interview ❤️

This is a very moving comment thank you for sharing. House music is for life!
This is exactly what we need!
Hope you enjoyed the interview! Thanks for the support
Amazing interview from a former Vinyl/Twilo/Tunnel DT Alumni:) Long live Be Yourself Fridays @ Vinyl!
This means a lot thank you!
Ditto Here.
Loved Ariel on the lights and Danny on the decks.
Spiritual Battery!

Watched Tenaglia so many times and he's one of the best along with Doc Martin and Larry Levan 👍🏻 DT choice cd is amazing
I appreciate the shout out to Doc Martin!
My favourite DJ. Comes across so well here - really humble. I remember buying his Tourism album on vinyl and loving the dark twisted vibes of the songs.

Happy you enjoyed! Thank you
GU Athens is amazing start to finish! 😎
My favorite Dj I live in nyc he's my hometown Dj he's made so many nights special for me some I'll never forget...to young to have seen Larry... the maestro

Great interview.
Truly the dj's favorite dj, Il Capo dei Capi.
I'm grateful for enjoying this interview. Thanks Super Progressive, and thanks Danny... he's such a beautiful human being.
Artists appreciating other artists. Danny is a legend!
Thank you for this great interview! It brought back lots of memories and anecdotes.

Thank you for sharing. I’m from New Jersey as well. I went to high school in Red Bank. I’d like to do an interview all about Zanzibar
I caught him a few times at Be Yourself at Vinyl. His programming was bonkers. He was dropping the spoken word of Vincent Price on the intro to thriller and at the end of it looped him saying “alive” over and over again… then dropped out all music and mixed in daft punk’s “alive”… which is an instrumental but the real house heads went bonkers.

Fantastic interview!!! Great stories. Danny is such a cool guy
Its a real joy to ser this videos... Thank you ver much mate.. Love to see you talking whit howells
Thank you! Happy you’re enjoying them. We’d love to Danny Howells
A great, detailed dive that really explains the roots of the music. I love the idea of museums to commemorate the iconic clubs.
Thank you for the kind comment!
Great interview. I always loved Danny’s GU10 from Athens. Quality. His back to basics mix was great as well.
Great interview! I love the interviewers interest in the history of house music
Im also obsessed with music history...I could listen to this all day!!!
Happy you’re enjoying it! More interviews to come
hey dude! so within the last week, Ive seen your episodes on Steve Lawler and now Danny. Amazing choice for bringing on some of the best of the best! Looking forward to one on Sasha and Digweed ;)
Thanks a lot and welcome to the page!
Great interview with my favorite DJ of all time. Danny is a true legend, and an incredible human being.
Thank you for this awesome interview. This was the best time to go clubbing. Glad I was at the right age when this was happening.
Thank you for watching I hope it brought back some great memories
Great interview gents!
Thank you!
Great interview, Saw Danny do a 24 hour set at Stereo in Montreal, Twilo was also good times. On another note a stationary camera setup or something along the lines of the 9 club setup would be less distracting for interviews.
Thanks for the feedback! HUGE fan of the nine club, we will find a good balance
Amazing
Thank you for watching
If you’ve never been to a party at DT’s loft you pretty much can’t put it into words.
Awesome interview! 😎❤️😎
Love him. Down to earth and very talented.
Bottom Heavy is a timeless masterpiece.
It is amazing that people can talk about The Sound Factory and never mention Junior Vasquez.
That would be a dream interview. We're always learning
@@SuperProgressive You might want to try to get an interview with Tim Lawrence. He could open you up to many worlds within dance music .
If I recall correctly, Tenaglia and Junior had a fued for several years in the 90s. But yeah, Junior was a beast in his day!
LOVE YOU DANNY! ❤❤❤❤ all my 8+ hour sets are in your honor! 🏆
Omg I came here to say the same thing. I regularly do 8-10 hour sets and think of Danny Tenaglia while playing them. 🫶🫶
What a great interview. Danny is always such a joy to watch and dance with when he steps down to dance with the crowd. Toronto loves you Danny!
could listen to DT talking this stuff all day long ....
Never saw an interview with him, I expected a much more arrogant surly character.. seems totally nice!
Danny has the STAX
He used to have a bad ass DJ booth... but he sold it. I think the Lodi brothers built it.... it was really amazing
Great interview 👏
listening to him is like listening to little louie vega talking about history - you do not wanna miss a word.
Humble DJ DT❤
Fascinating
Legend 👏🏻
Yea back in the day, I remember Danny , Hopefully i can get an interview with you also if you remember me?
OMG. When it was Danny vs Danny @ ARC... he opened his set, by talking on the mic.... but he had this “track” that was just background noise..... it sounded like you were on a dock, in the middle of the night, and you could hear this bell ringing, then there would be this fog horn sound, like it came from a boat...... but Danny T would romp on that isolator bass knob.... it was amazing .....
Then later in his set..... he drops this track, with this woman saying .....” I like them boom boom beats” , then it would drop back in. Fricking amazing.
And yeah ...... he use to play for 24hours at winter music festival, down in Miami...
What is the track?
Give the master DJ some respect. Water 💦 common
The London Global Underground mix he did is the best ever. I needed to say that because there might be some confusion from others.
Great interview. Love Danny but can’t stand it when he gets political 🤣
🍐or🍎
Offer the man some water.
😌
❤
Production tip, color match your cameras. The white balance on that roving shot is annoying. The interview is spot on and thanks for this. Erick Morillo is an incel junky, just throwing that out there at random.

oh please no michael alig. they didnt care about music at all. keoki at one point i really kinda liked. esp some of his remixes. but i wonder if the michael alig thing didnt happen. and bring so much attention what was really really bad in nyc. if things would still be in manhattan.
he sells drugs, looks like a gangsta
Vinyl was the peak and also a comedy show watching all the tweaked out patrons glaring at Precinct 1 on their way out after closing. 🫣
