Frankie Knuckles laid the groundwork for house at the Warehouse, it was to be another DJ from the homosexual scene that created the environment for the house explosion, Ron Hardy. Where Knuckles' sound was still very much based on disco, Hardy was the DJ that went for the rawest and craziest rhythm tracks he could find and he made The Music Box the inspirational spot for pretty much every DJ and producer that was to blossom out of the Chicago scene. He was also the DJ to whom the producers took their very latest tracks so they could test the reaction on the dance floor.
