Masters at Work

The duo of "little" Louie Vega and Kenny "dope" Gonzalez are the preeminent production/remix team in house music, their nom de plume Masters At Work standing behind dozens of the biggest club hits and remixes of their time. Effectively soundtracking the freewheeling American nightclub scene of the 1990s, Vega and Gonzalez blended their love of the disparate music coming from New York's underground clubs during the 1980s -- disco, the freewheeling garage scene, emerging house and hip-hop styles, Latin freestyle -- to enormously influence the mainstream dance sound as it coalesced during the following decade. Besides their productions, remixes and appearances as Masters At Work, Vega and/or Gonzalez are also involved in a good dozen other projects (including Nuyorican Soul, KenLou, The Bucketheads, and The Untouchables), many of which appear on the duo's own MAW Records label.
