Chi-City Soul 1908-1980

The City of Chicago asked its Cultural Historian, Tim Samuelson, and the incredible Numero Group to create a 3 hour mix from the city’s earliest crude recordings on Edison cylinders through 1980 – just before the rise of Chicago’s house music scene. Below is a stream of the mix which represents an aural journey of a city whose recorded output & legacy has influenced & changed the scope of the history of music around the world for centuries to come. Enjoy!”


Download the mix here. And speaking of Chi-City mixtapes, hit the jump for Lupe Fiasco’s “Enemy of the State: A Love Story”
