Bernard Edwards
Cuando comencé The CHIC Organization con Bernard Edwards, era antes de que se popularizaron los sub-woofers. Para acentuar las frecuencias bajas, siempre hacíamos que el bombo y el bajo tenían mas presencia que los otros discos de música pop. Era un método de R & B que me sirve bien también hoy en día.
He estado pensando mucho de Bernard últimamente y todo lo que hemos logrado. Todo comenzó con la grabación de nuestro primer disco de CHIC "Everybody Dance". Hemos aprendido a mantener el Bajo al Frente.

Today's pop music—genre-crossing, gender-bending, racially mixed, visually stylish, and dominated by dance music with global appeal—is the world that Nile Rodgers created. In the 1970s and 1980s, he wrote and produced the songs that defined that era and everything that came after: "Le Freak," "Good Times," "We Are Family," "Like a Virgin," "Modern Love," "I'm Coming Out," "The Reflex," "Rapper's Delight." Aside from his own band, Chic, he worked with everyone from Diana Ross and Madonna to David Bowie and Duran Duran (not to mention Mick Jagger, Debbie Harry, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, Michael Jackson, Prince, Rod Stewart, Robert Plant, Depeche Mode, Paul Simon, Peter Gabriel, Grace Jones, Bryan Ferry, INXS, and the B-52's), transforming their music, selling millions of records, and redefining what a pop song could be.
