There’s something special about Chicago House music—it lives and breathes through the artists who shaped it and the producers who keep its pulse alive today. In a powerful new collaboration, producer Marvin Acosta teams up with the legendary Linda Rice on their new track “What U Need”, delivering a sound that’s both nostalgic and fresh.
If you’ve been following House music since its golden years, you already know the name Linda Rice. She’s the voice behind essential DJ International Records tracks like “Get It Right” and “Out Of Control”—both of which still resonate with DJs and dancers alike. After some time away from the mic, Linda returns with undeniable strength, proving that her soulful edge and commanding presence haven’t faded a bit.
On the production side, Marvin Acosta brings his signature touch: deep grooves, timeless rhythm, and a modern flair that nods to the past while pushing forward. His growing presence in Chicago’s club scene—from venues like Le Nocturne, Primary, and Masada, to airplay on Houswerx Radio—has made him one of the city’s most talked-about new voices in House.
“What U Need” isn’t just another collab—it’s a love letter to Chicago’s House scene. Marvin’s ability to capture the genre’s essence while introducing his own creative style is a testament to his dedication and raw talent. Pair that with Linda Rice’s iconic vocals, and you’ve got a track that hits all the right notes—emotional, rhythmic, and absolutely club-ready.
Both Marvin and Linda share a connection with the legendary DJ International Records, a label that’s been a home to House music pioneers since the beginning. That lineage isn’t lost on this release—it enhances it. And with the support of curators and industry players like Bouncehouse Entertainment Group, John Lynx, Afterlife, and Rocky Jones, it’s clear Marvin’s journey is just beginning.
So whether you’re a longtime House head or a newcomer discovering the sound, “What U Need” is a track worth diving into. It celebrates where House has been—and shows exactly where it’s headed.
