#
# The mothership has landed... The resurrection of modern funk begins now. House
# the nation... The jack is back.
#
# The time has arrived for the midwest underground scene unites to break the
# walls that have held us back for so long. The scene has had its share of down
# falls; backstabbing, lying, jealousy, and greed have slowly ravaged through the
# underground breaking partnerships, ruining communications, and closing minds...
# Now, slowly as we pick up the pieces, we dream of a brighter day. No longer
# can we afford to be ignorant. We must learn of the music around us. We must
# appreciate what we have, for it may not last forever. This is the dawning of a
# new day. Keep house and techno music in America. Support your local record
# label. Educate yourself. -House Preservation Society
