Juno Review: During the 1990s, Chez Damier and Ron Trent’s Prescription Records did more than any other label to define the sound of Chicago deep house. The label’s reputation is such that it’s still talked about in hushed tones, with lesser-known back catalogue nuggets remaining in-demand items with DJs and record collectors. This superb, double-disc compilation from Rush Hour tells the story of the label, gathering together both much-played underground anthems (Trent and Damier’s “Morning Factory” and “The Choice”, the proto-boompty-via-St Germain jazz-house of Angora’s “Enchantment”, and so on) and sought-after selections. Thrillingly, the collection also boasts a trio of previously unreleased Ron Trent cuts, all of which are superb.
