2016 has been a big year for our Traxsource LIVE guest this week, seeing him drop an album on Green Velvet’s esteemed Relief Records and land 2 Traxsource #1s.. We’re stoked to welcome Chicago House music icon Gene Farris into the guest mix this week.

We took a minute to speak to the Chicago house legend about his hometown history and the scene today, his love for all things Star Wars (just check out the studio!) and of course, the new commemorative compilation, as Gene Farris Celebrates a Century at The Wheel.

Gene’s ‘Cosmos’ Album is out now on Traxsource & we caught up with him to get a look ‘Inside The Album’ and more with this exclusive interview.

We’ve collected a few of their best pictures and cool discoveries from the past week to share with you…
