'A master who truly deserves his title, Kenny Dope is one of the greatest DJ-producers of all time. Kenny "Dope" Gonzalez is the embodiment of the eclectic sound of New York. His prolific body of work fuses soul, Latin, Afro-beat, jazz and funk, with house, hip-hop, disco, rap and R&B. To music connoisseurs, this regular Puerto Rican New Yorker is nothing short of a deity.
Kenny is one half of the most revolutionary house production team of the past decade – Masters At Work. Since 1990, Kenny’s studio partnership with "Little" Louie Vega has maintained an awe-inspiring output of dancefloor classics, spearheading the evolution of house music as we know it. The MAW Records imprint is now one of the biggest selling vinyl labels in the world!
Not limited to one genre, Kenny is an undisputed remix champion. His list of clients includes the biggest names in music - from Michael Jackson to Madonna, Ray Charles to Roni Size, The Braxtons to Björk, Donna Summer to Daft Punk, Armand Van Helden to Aaliyah, Janet Jackson to Jamiroquai… nearly everyone has a Kenny ‘Dope’ Gonzalez touched track in their collection somewhere! Simultaneously, Kenny has continued his stunning solo career, with house releases as The Bucketheads and The Untouchables - plus a wide range of hip-hop projects, many on his own Dope Wax label. Kenny's 1995 release under the Bucketheads moniker, 'The Bomb (These Sounds Fall Into My Mind)', topped the dance charts and is still the ultimate disco cut-up.
With his MAW 1997 multi-Grammy nominated 'NuYorican Soul' album, Kenny changed the direction of modern dance music. Acclaimed as an aural encyclopedia of dance, its cross-cultural blend of styles, seamlessly mixed with live instrumentation, featured such all-time greats as Roy Ayres, George Benson, Jocelyn Brown and Tito Puente.
Defected proudly presents a 3CD mix by New York City’s crowned king. A triple disc set with a seriously upfront selection - Kenny’s mix proves his mettle as one of dance music’s greatest innovators. '
