Episode: How a DJ’s set on the pier at sunrise continues to show the evolution of house
Description: Chicago is the home of house, with the genre’s creation starting in the Southside 40 years ago. While the genre has spread across the world, its roots remain strong in Chicago. In the early hours of the morning on Chicago's northside, a sunrise set is being played.
