Night Train

February for Egg London kicks off in a big way with Night Train welcoming two house music giants Frankie Knuckles and Lee Foss playing extended sets.

Frankie Knuckles is one of those undisputed legends of house music that rarely plays. From back in the day on Chicago’s South Side, where it all started over 30 years ago to the present day, ‘The Godfather of House’ Frankie has long pioneered the definition of true house music. 2013 was the year the big man returned, and in 2014, we’ve got him for a massive 4-hr set.

Having absolutely smashed a sold out club last time he showed his face, Lee Foss will once again be rocking the decks at Egg London. As Hot Creations boss, the records that pass Foss’s ears are without a doubt some of the best in the business. Having pretty much reinvent dance music for a modern UK audience, first with a pounding solo career and secondly with the highly-in-demand Hot Natured – he’ll be setting alight the middle floor with a 3-hr set on the 8th. Alongside Jamie Jones and Infinity Ink, as Hot Natured, Lee Foss, hit the UK charts in 2012 with the acclaimed ‘Benediction’. Having hained a wider audience with remixes for Rudimental and Lana Del Rey, he still remains forever in the underground.

Night Train is headed up by DJ/Producer Jim Warboy, who has been responsible for developing the Heroes parties at Egg London over the past two years. He has a history of promoting fashionable, underground parties around East London and has been part of the team responsible for developing a new direction at Egg London.

We guarantee this one will sell out, so get your tickets quick, or prepare yourself for a deep sense of regret.

Frankie Knuckles: Honoured in Chicago for his contributions to music to his adopted home with a street named ‘Frankie Knuckles Way’ established on ‘Frankie Knuckles Day’ August 26th, 2004, Frankie Knuckles is one of House Music’s true living legends, who’s also rubbed shoulders with US President Barack Obama. His numerous accomplishments as a DJ, artist and remixer over the last 30+ years include being the first House Music artist to win a Grammy Award for ‘Remixer of the Year’, creating the legendary ‘Tears’ anthem with Robert Owens and Satoshi Tomeii, remixing the classic ‘Where Love Lives’ and being resident DJ at Chicago’s The Warehouse club, which spawned the name ‘house’ music.

One of the pivotal partners in NYC’s Def Mix Productions alongside David Morales, Frankie Knuckles has led the way for DJ/Producers in House Music with a Who’s Who list of incredible remixes including classics for Mary J Blige, Michael Jackson, and most recently Depeche Mode’s ‘Wrong’ and Hercules & The Love Affairs ‘Blind’, with his partner Eric Kupper as the production duo, Directors Cut. His own instrumental anthem ‘The Whistle Song’ from his first album, ‘Beyond The Mix’ was No 1 on the Billboard Dance chart and Top 5 on the UK National Chart, spawning his long-term residency at NYC’s Sound Factory Bar, which have all contributed to Frankie playing at the top of his game.

Frankie’s most recently added his magic touch to the chart-topping ‘In It Together’ by Human Life (Defected) as well as remixing Art Department, Kathy Brown and the future classic ‘Let’s Stay Home’ by Inaya Day. He also lends his services to Meals on Wheels, GMHC, Pediatric AIDS, and the Harvey Milk School.
