In the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, the Chosen Few DJs was a group of popular DJs from the city’s south side who played their unique brand of soulful dance music to huge crowds at Chicago night spots of historic importance in the birth and development of house music, including Sauer’s, First Impressions, the Playground and the Loft. Alan’s influence on the house music landscape has been felt for more than 30 years, and he has been cited as an inspiration by countless DJs including legendary house music DJs and producers Frankie Knuckles, Steve "Silk" Hurley and Chip E. Alan still regularly plays to rave reviews at clubs and events throughout Chicago and the U.S. The Chosen Few DJs also host the annual Chosen Few Old School Reunion Picnic each July 4th weekend in Chicago, one of the largest and longest running house music festival events in the world! djalanking’s tracks Dream (March 2024) by djalanking published on 2024-03-07T05:50:41Z Family (Thanksgiving 2022) by djalanking published on 2022-11-28T00:38:44Z The Moment (February 2022) by djalanking published on 2022-02-21T16:46:36Z Stress Release (August 2021) by djalanking published on 2021-08-19T01:15:18Z The Peach Mix (January 2021) by djalanking published on 2021-01-06T07:55:38Z Transitions (August 2020) by djalanking published on 2020-08-05T05:33:18Z Saturday Night (June 2020) by djalanking published on 2020-06-09T05:05:39Z Try Love (March 2020) by djalanking published on 2020-03-08T18:38:16Z The Impeach Mix (December 2019) by djalanking published on 2019-12-25T21:26:16Z Afro Soul (October 2019) by djalanking published on 2019-10-14T01:30:39Z
