JM Silk - Music Is The Key 1985 Old School Chicago House STEVE "SILK" HURLEY Truly a man of all musical seasons, (More) 1985 Old School Chicago House STEVE "SILK" HURLEY Truly a man of all musical seasons, Chicago-based producer / remixer / songwriter / DJ, and now four-time Grammy Nominee Steve "Silk" Hurley has more than proven in his 20-year plus career that he is a musical force to be reckoned with. His Grammy Nomination in January of 2004 for his remix of Brandy's "What About Us" is just another testament to his longevity as a producer, and yet another confirmation that "The Remix King" is here to stay. Having spanned the sometimes-limiting borders of contemporary Black music, moving freely from his Club/House music roots to his R&B/Funk roots, his musical scope as a producer has thus far remained unrivaled. Spending his childhood as a devout radio listener & worshipping musical giants from The Jackson 5 to Parliament, he developed not only a love of music, but also a keen sense of melody. Initially developing a strong reputation early on in his career as one of Chicago's hottest DJ's, "Silk" was known for his signature mixing skills and diverse mixing style. It was through exercising this creative expression that he eventually released his first single entitled "Music Is The Key", which soared to the #9 position on the Billboard Dance Chart, establishing him as one of the pioneers of "House Music" and validating him as a producer. He quickly intensified his credentials as a producer and artist when his group, J.M. Silk, premiered on the RCA Records label and astonished the industry with a string of #1 dance hits, including "Jack Your Body", which was #1 on the U.K. National Chart for 2 weeks, a feat which at that time, was accomplished only by the Beetles. Since then, Hurley's productions and remixes have catapulted him to the forefront as one of the hottest talents today. In fact, his ability to musically embellish a song and take it to new dimensions has earned him the well-deserved title as one of the nation's top remixers. This is evident in some of his most prized works, including: Michael Jackson's "Jam" and "Remember The Time", Prince's "Gett Off", Crystal Waters' "Makin' Happy", Yolanda Adams' "Open My Heart", and Boyz II Men's "I'll Make Love You", as well as songs by Janet Jackson, Mary J. Blige, Mint Condition, Sounds Of Blackness, Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, and Bob Marley, to name just a few. Steve's recent remixes include the Grammy-Nominated remix of Brandy's "What About Us", R. Kelly's #1 hit "Thoia Thoing", and projects by Kelly Rowland and many others. "Silk's" passion for music does not end, however, with remixes. His freestyle creativity expands to that of a notably outstanding songwriter / producer, penning most of his chart-topping hits. Hurley has had a pivotal hand in the success of many artists with his writing & production on such projects as CeCe Peniston's "We Got a Love Thang" (Top 20 Pop, Top 10 U.K. National Chart) "Keep On Walkin' & "I'm Not Over You"(Gold & Top 10 R&B), Kym Sims' "Too Blind To See It" (Gold, Top 10 U.K. National Chart), Ann Nesby's "Can I Get A Witness" (Top 10 U.K. National Chart) & "Hold On", Chantay Savage's "Betch'all Never Find" (Top 10 R&B), Tene Williams' "Give Him A Love He Can Feel" (Top 10 R&B), and Tanya Blount's "I'm Gonna Make you Mine" (Top 40 R&B Chart). His highly acclaimed production of Chantay Savage's "I Will Survive" (Gold, #2 Billboard R&B Chart) was one of the biggest records of 1996. Steve also wrote and produced songs for Ann Nesby on her 1st and on Rahsaan Patterson's 2nd and 3rd albums. Silk has appeared on the Oprah Show several times as a member of Oprah's "Dream Team" for the Pop Star Challenge Contest, and also produced the entire "Oprah's Pop Star Challenge" album, on Epic/Sony Records, (Less)
