Fort Knox Five have been huge favourites of all the team here at LSM for quite some time now, so it was devastating to hear the very sad news of the passing of one of the true funk soul brothers in this world, Jon Horvath, from the group. Personally for me I was most fortunate to speak to Jon, only through emails and stuff and only on a handful of occasions, but, like many other people, a few moments of Jon’s time and you could tell he was just one of life’s good souls that made life better. The passion for life, music and of course ‘ the funk ‘ he had was clear for all too see.

It’s no surprise at all to see the outpouring of love and support for his family, his Fort Knox brothers Rob, Sid and Steve and all of Jon’s friends. With an overwhelming response of kind, heartfelt words the Fort Knox guys have put a massive amount of music ( exclusive remixes and mixes ) of theirs up for free download in Jon’s honor. Clearly such a free for all at such a sensitive time would never be encouraged but the guys wanted to do this to simply help everyone get through this difficult time. As we all know, music has power to bring the good out of the darkest situations and that’s what Rob, Sid and Steve want from this because music is love and love heals all. They have also setup a memorial page for Jon so that anyone who wants to share memories, photo’s and words of support can do so here, Memories of Jon Horvath, aka DJ JonH.

Rest In Peace, Jon Horvath.
