Recent Published Quote .....
In music, and especially in underground music, the word "legend" is thrown around to the point where it loses all meaning.
What is a legend? It's someone who broke the mold - someone whose sounds, techniques - even his style - changed things forever. It's a pioneer that everyone who followed after emulated, whether consciously or not. In dance music, the person you're talking about is John Morales.
