track “Fade” and 2018 single “Lift Yourself.” “While some people thought Kanye had lost his mind and some people thought it was genius, everyone said that the beat is fire -- and the beat was Trax,” says Cain, who discusses her history in house music, its pop culture reach and what 35 years of Trax means for Chicago.House songs weren’t songs in a conventional sense.

And because it was such a DIY city, with the industrial and punk scenes and all-ages shows, it became a hotbed for something like house to happen.I was very much into punk at the time. Rock’n’roll had kind of reached a point of homogenized overproduction in the mid-’80s.
