The Cool Kids

For those of you that are still not hip to The Cool Kids, it's about time you heard them. It's like fun goofy Hip-Hop from waaaay back in the day. They are all about just having a good time and aren't scared to look a little silly. Not all comedic punch lines and metaphors like say Little Wayne, just plain fun for the hell of it. They are from the burgeoning Juke scene out of Chicago. Which seems to have an obsession with all things throwback especially pagers. Check em' out.

A short description of what Juke music is:
Juke house is a type of Chicago House which started being recognised in its own right from around 1992 onwards. It features minimal 808 and 909 drum machine-driven tracks, and sometimes sexually explicit lyrics.
Using the template of classic Chicago House music (primarily, Percolator by Cajmere), and adding the sexual lyrics perceived by casual fans of Miami Bass, it has usually been made on very minimal equipment with little or no effects. It usually features a "4-to-the-floor" kick drum (full sounding, but not too long or distorted) along with Roland 808 and 909 synthesised tom-tom sounds, minimal use of analogue synths, and short, slightly dirty sounding (both sonically and lyrically) vocal samples, often repeated in various ways. Also common are 808 and 909 clap sounds, and full "rapped" verses and choruses.
