Craig Loftis (Grand High Priest) is a Chicago institution. He was involved either in the production or engineering of an unfathomable number of Chicago classics in the 1980s and '90s and reinvented his career in the 2000s.

In this interview, Craig describes his amazing journey: from ten years with DJ International when Chicago House was at its peak, Old School 2010 vs. the real deal, the first day he heard Martin Circus on Richard Long's famed soundsystem and his groundbreaking success two decades later with the underground smash "Mary Mary".
