That was house. Early stages of house. Now alot of it is either deeper or harder. Danny Tenaglia, Armand Van Helden (remember Funk Phenomina??) Eric Prydz - Call On Me, Sunloverz - Shine On Me, stuff like that.
House?

Thanks Sue! So I was ahead of my time, huh? LOL...I do remember Funk Phenomena...so describe to me what you mean by house now being "deeper and harder?" :sqembarrassed: (ok, all you pervs...don't get carried away now...)
Deep house, still with Armand Van Helden, Ian Van Dahl, Amuka, Da Buzz, Chab.
Hard House: Richard Humpty Vission, Bad Boy Bill, songs that are ready to turn to Techno, but not as edgy.

I'm so glad Pittsburgh is the most ignorant city in the US when it comes to music. If it's not on the radio people don't listen to it. Other than Metal and Ghetto rap.
Hmmmm......reminds me of a song that came out in 1991 by The Lords Of Acid, called "Rough Sex" Now that was hard house!!
At my recent university gigs...house was Menni Banassi, Global deejays, Royal Gigalos...and so on..........
Hey Sue I love your taste in music.
Here are some of my favorites. Acid Crash, Plastic dreams, Follow me, Music is the answer by Danny Tengelia(sp), Koro koro. Stomp...and Work it to the bone.
Oh so many more. I am going into the attic to dig in the crates.

OK, and the Canadian version is a city called, Abbotsford. But I am sorry to say that we might just conquer North America.

Hey, correct me if I'm wrong:
ORIGINALLY, House music was merely music that combined elements of two or more songs; in other words, no elements were new. The likes of DJs like Afrika Bambaata (or however you spell it) were the pioneers.
BUT, just like POP, PUNK, REGGAE, and so many other genres, the term has been construed to mean whatever different people in different places of the world want it to mean--and these meanings change over time, as people always want an "identity" for their music. For example, 2 Unlimited came out as TECHNO, but now they have been relegated to HI-NRG DANCE, CLUB or whatever, because nobody really knows the exact definition of anything anymore.
Eh?

Sue...I don't mean to belabor the point but how would you describe the difference in sound...can you tell me other then the artist name because I'm not familiar with them....
Deep house is a darker style of regular house. Regular house is more of a pop style.
Hard house is, like I said above, has more of an edge to it....not quite like Techno, but ready to turn techno if it is taken to the next level.
Anyone else have a take on this?

I'm by no means even close to knowing what I am taking about.
I play a handful of these groups of songs. The Problem is so much other music has crossed over into these catagories.
I think we need a list for dummies like me.
Now this is what I play and correct my catagoies I put all this type of music in a folder that says CLUB:
House
AGO - Tell We Where You Are
Lords of Acid - I wanna See Your Pussy
LCD Soundsystem - Daft Punk is Plaing at My House
TATU - Not Gonna Get Us
Anna Vissi - Call Me
DJ Alligator Project - The Whistle Song
Zombie Nation - Kernkraft
Techno
DaRude - Sandstorm
DJ Energy - Beliver
Now these confuse me:
Paul Oakenfold - Send Me an Angel
Luca Prata - Lets Get it On
What would you call artist like:
Jameriquai
Crystal Method
Aphex Twin
Alice Deejay
Amber
Armin Van Buuren
Basement Jaxx
Dirty Vegas
Eric Prydz
I didn't realize I play this much dance music, It's time to educate us and get some list together.

I think the reason Lucas Prata confuses you is because it is Italo House. Just what you need huh....another catagory!!
Anna Vissi, I love her music, but I classify her as club music, not really house. Kind of like (cough) Cher. Oakenfold plays many different styles, Faster Kill Pussycat was on the deep house side....had that dark sound to it, but yet light enough to appeal to a wide variety of people. I've also had stuff by Oakenfold that was very edgy actually on the techno and trance side. Send Me An Angel, I would say, in my opinion is borderline trance. What I mean by that is it's house, but has skipped the techno side and is going right into trance.

As a Club DJ is it imparitive that you mix sets of the same style of music?
Is it acceptable to play something like:
House - Techno - Club - House - Trance - Techno
As a set?
As a bar DJ I'll do 3 song sets. Do you do the same or mix and match will all club music?
In club music do you play entire songs? Here our club is top 40. At max I'll play 2:30 of a song before I'm beat mixing and moving into something else.
