lmao wait is big room house used seriously as a term by people now (re: this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Vkyr_VzYAE)? It was always a term of derision in the past. Just like shiny shirt house.

WAFFLEHOUND posted:I'm listening to a Norman Cook set from Global Gathering in 2006 and holy poo poo I forgot how good dance music was before it became all about drops and who had the fattest sausage. Seriously, when did drops constantly become the norm? I can't tolerate Big Room House, and that seems to be all it is. Is there any serious push away from it in the mainstream? Are you kidding me?

WAFFLEHOUND posted:No, every set including poo poo by Norman Cook these days has been all about how many drops you can jam into something, it's awful and it trades keeping up a high energy for just kind of cheap thrills. This obviously isn't literally every set, but it's a shitload of what's headlining major festivals these days. Oh my bad, I was under the impression you were aware that numerous clubs in large cities around the globe have quality DJs every weekend.

guppy posted:I haven't listened to much house in the past but my interest is growing. Hopefully I'm not setting match to powder here, but what should I be looking at if I want to know what the undisputed deep house classics are (rather than brand new stuff)? I know this is probably going to mean DJ sets, which is fine, and I'm happy to pay for them. If I can get them through Amazon MP3 so much the better. Individual tracks are fine too but I just don't know where to go once I've heard those. http://halfisenough.com/

Duke Dumont straddles that line between house and pop really well and I feel like we haven't seen that since the early 90s. This in particular reminds me of several Black Box tracks.

foutre posted:I'm trying to experience my Midwestern heritage and get to know Deep House better. Actually, I don't have a constructive reply to this post that wouldn't be mean, but I think you might be able to help me out. For like the past year I've noticed EDM bros start using the term "deep house" incredibly incorrectly and seemingly for any type of 4x4 music that isn't "EDM." Can you give me examples of what you think deep house is and/or attempt to articulate what it means to you? This whole phenomenon is really confusing to me because, initially, I was really pumped that people were getting into deep house but then I just realized that the term essentially meant nothing in the contexts in which it was being used. EDIT: Unless that was a fakepost or whatever.

MyChemicalImbalance posted:Deep House as it exists in the mainstream (here in the UK at least) is totally different from the actual sub genre that has been going long before the radio stations and marketing executives decided it was the term to slap on anything and everything that sounds like dance music. Actually, I had a conversation with someone and he suggested that Disclosure's Latch is probably a good example of what a lot of people consider to be 'deep house' and I think that is probably a correct understanding. Anyways, I might've posted it in this thread once already to the exact same question, but here is a blog that answers your exact request: http://halfisenough.com/ EDIT: Yep, like 3 months ago http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3238075&pagenumber=218&perpage=40#post428453113 Mike_V fucked around with this message at 16:24 on Jul 23, 2014 |

Or, you can use Derrick Carter's very esoteric definitionquote:Any 40+yo heads from Chi, knows that "deep house" is what we used to call disco. "Beat music" was everything else.

To be clear, house generally hangs around 120-125 BPM so that's the rule not the exception.

Ewar Woowar posted:The problem is that what was deep house 10-15 years ago sounds almost NOTHING like what people refer to as deep house now. The same goes for a lot of genres really. Well, it's not that. It's that it's such an arbitrary sub-genre to suddenly be popular (at least as a buzzword). Like, even though I loathed what happened to it, I could understand how people would consider Skrillex et al dubstep. I am genuinely confused and interested in how this contemporary appropriation of 'deep house' came about, which was the point of my initial point. Also Moodymann forever.

Hm, interesting, I've never read any social theory or semiotics so this is quite new. The point is that I'm interested in the process not the end result of the phenomenon.

JamesKPolk posted:I figured it was "deep" from like "deep" dubstep (versus brostep) cause I saw it kind of emerge from "post dubstep/future garage" slowly switching over to playing/making housey stuff. I definitely noticed it in London first. But that could be tunnel vision on my part. And this might be a New York centric thing but for a while you would hear real actual deep house in sets with it like a year or two back. I don't know (I bet plogo can help out if he's around), but I really love this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbNbNy96fZ8

There are thousands of great disco mixes, I don't see what sets it apart from a Danny Tenaglia, Frankie Knuckles, or Francois K mix. It's enjoyable mind you, but nothing out of the ordinary.
