The Juan MacLean: "Happy House" (Live in Chicago) (Video)

3:44 p.m. · November 16, 2009 · by Matthew Richardson

DFA disco outfit The Juan MacLean tragically lost their drummer, Jerry Fuchs, earlier this month, and this video of a May performance the group did in Chicago is definitely a testament to Fuchs' massive talent. "Happy House" the group's signature track, is a relentless barrage of dance floor infinities that makes whatever venue it's performed in a temporary disco shrine. This is due in no small part to Jerry Fuchs' ability to steadily hammer out savage percussive brilliance. In short, the man left some big shoes to fill.
