Chip E. (interviewée); Hindmarch, Carl (réalisateur), « Pump Up The Volume », Channel Four, : « If you were a DJ in Chicago, if you wanted to have 'the' records, there was only one place to go and that was Imports. This is where Imports was. People come in, they're looking for 'Warehouse music', and we would put, you know, 'As heard at the Warehouse' or 'As played at the Warehouse', and then eventually we just shortened that down to - because people also just in the vernacular, they started saying 'yeah, what's up with that 'House music' - now at this time they were talkin' about the old, old classics, the Salsoul, the Philly classics and such - so we put on the labels for the bins, we'd say 'House music'. And people would start comin' in eventually and just start askin', 'yeah, where's the new House music?' (Si vous étiez un DJ à Chicago, si vous souhaitiez avoir "le" disque, il n'y avait qu'un seul endroit où aller et c'était Imports. C'était où se trouvait Imports. Des gens venaient, ils cherchaient la "Warehouse music", et nous affichions "As heard at the Warehouse" ou "As played at the Warehouse", et ensuite nous avons raccourci ce nom - parce que les gens commençaient à demander "Hey, quoi de neuf en 'House music'" - à ce moment-là ils parlaient de l'ancien, des vieux classiques, du Salsoul, des classiques de Philly et d'autres - donc nous avons affiché les étiquettes sur les bacs où il était écrit 'House music'. Et les gens ont commencé à venir et à éventuellement demander "Hey, où se trouve la nouvelle House music ?') ».

"I suspect the following statement may piss off dance nerds, but it’s fair to say that Knuckles had as much claim as anyone to having ‘invented’ house music thirty odd years ago. Essentially, he took the kitsch out of disco and turned it into a synthesiser-heavy global brand. Was it worth the effort, though?" ; 8 avril 2014, consulté le 4 mai 2014.
