Kerri Chandler's Trionisphere Album
------------------------------------------------------------------------
" Kerri Chandler's music has become synonymous with the New Jersey house sound. Inspired by Tony Humphries legendary sets at Newark New Jersey's most famous club Zanzibar, Chandler was pivotal in the updating of Jersey's disco sound. For over a decade, Kerri's songs have been consistently rocking the world's deepest dancefloors. His rumbling basslines, jazz-soaked keys and intensely emotional vocal productions have influenced a generation of producers. Over the years he has refined and perfected his style, providing classic releases for house music's most prestigious labels: Ibadan, Large, King St., Strictly Rhythm and his own Madhouse imprint, to name just a few. Trionisfere marks a culmination of Chandler's career. His musical style is fully realized, and his ability to create a world within his songs is uncanny. Refusing to subside to the over-polished sound incorporated by so many of his peers, his rough beats, soulful melodies and wall-shaking basslines embrace a realness that makes Trionisfere such an exceptional album. Never forgetting his responsibility to the energized dancers, he has created a work that is equally impactful on the body as it is on the heart." - Taken from liner notes written by Orion Ray-Jones
