Nile Rodgers
The Architect of the Good Times
I make the world move — one groove at a time.
I’m the ghost in the groove, the hand behind the heat. Chic, Bowie, Madonna, Daft Punk — if it made you move, I probably had something to do with it. I don’t just play music, I build it — like a house you can dance in. Survived disco backlash, cancer, and the 80s — and I’m still here, chuckin' my way through life. You ask me, the beat isn’t just a beat. It’s a heartbeat.
What I'm Into: that perfect chuck, studio magic, Bernard’s basslines, funk theory, cancer survivor beats
