First of all, WATCH THIS:

YouTube - Dj Rush Get On Up


Whatever your opinion, you’d can’t help but be entertained. It’s like some twisted pop music. We’ve all been singing it to one another all week; it’s a tune that will stick in your head for days if you dare it.



But does it really sum up who DJ Rush really is? Well, to most of you it seems a pretty simple conclusion:


“He’s a massively tall, legendarily eccentric black guy who plays absolutely banging tunes. Sometimes, he’ll sing along during his set. Sometimes he even brings a trumpet.”

Yes, that’s right. A trumpet.



But it would be unfair to be assumptive. That really only scratches the surface of a career that has kept him in the highest regard amongst performers and crowds alike. Rush is just as famed for the fact that his approach to his music making over the years has been unflinching. This is a man who exists right on the edge of accepted boundaries:

But for me, what shows him at his best is this tune here, with Dave Clarke:

Before men like Green Velvet (another Chicago luminary) showed the mainstream how performance can change experience, Rush was there breaking the ground that allowed that very kind of thinking in the first place.
It’s very rare for Rush to grace these shores; even the bar staff are taking this one off. It indicates just the sense of event this man creates.
