Armando Gallop was one of Chicago's early house music artists and most notable contributors to the development of acid house. His raw and stripped down productions, including classics like 'Land Of Confusion' and '100% Of Disin' U' set the tone for Chicago's second wave of 'ghetto house' artists like Paul Johnson and Robert Armani. On December 17, 1996, at only 26 years of age, Armando tragically passed away from leukaemia.

is featured in Update #025:
DJ Deep, House Of Trax, Paul Johnson
Chicago is a state of mind. 30 years of house music history have made Chicago a mythical, imaginary place, only loosely related to the actual city.

The Compilation City to City 3 - DJ Deep's Journey Through Chicago, Detroit And New York's Secret House Gems
was reviewed:
Claro Intelecto, Redshape, Marcel Dettmann? Chicago, Detroit, and New York? Anyone puzzled by the discrepancies between this compilation's title and its track selection should give it a listen, and we promise that things will clear up pretty quickly.Chicago, Detroit and New York have long become common topoi in electronic music - abstract concepts, moods, and systems of reference, rather than designations of origin. As electronic music has become globalized, so have the musical styles of Chicago, Detroit, and New York.
No one understands this better than Parisian DJ icon DJ Deep, who has compiled and mixed the third volume in the 'City to City' series for London's BBE label. His track selection combines rare gems by US house music artists like Mike Dunn, Armando, and DJ Traxx, with international productions from Frozen Border, Redshape, or Claro Intelecto.
Unified by fat, jacking drum-machine beats, bouncing basslines and melodramatic string interludes, his selection gels together exceptionally well. Thirteen single tracks are included in the package as well as a 1:17h long, expertly crafted mix. Highly recommended.
