This is Techno ???

[Tortango]

Well like others have said there's no point in being pedantic about it... but I would call this tech house or techno rather than deep house. that big build in the preview clip doesn't feel very deep house to me.

And this is why people complain about genre labels on music stores- none of us can ever totally agree on what genre anything is

Are a lot of people really calling disclosure deep house? .

Yes. In the UK they are.
I had this same discussion with a DJ mate who plays house/deep in a local bar/club and he is getting it every night. He is hacked off with it.

"yo mate play some deep house, play Disclosure, play Maceo"

Oh well.

Disclosure sure have become popular over here recently, but I've never heard anyone classify them as deep house, or any sort of house at all.

Personally I find following artists, labels, and channels is much more effective than browsing a whole genre for new material.

Closer to techno than deep house in my book. I certainly wouldn't freak out about it.

Holy cow. How do they stick this in techno? This is 100% deep house.

Well it ain't tech, it ain't techno and it ain't disco, so I just threw it under deep house. It's deep, a little dark and it's bassline was copied from this track which is very house on the funky tip:

Well new deep house is just old deep house with modern production. You listen to the old dance anthems and there is a distinct lack of low end compared to modern production and the loudness war. Personally, I find Disclosure's White Noise to be Deep House, because there's nothing else closer. It's house, it's minimal, it's deep, it's gotta be, right? The vocal is full on commercial pop though. And none of their other songs I would class as deep. I think in getting their usual sound into the mainstream they took elements of the current trend, which in most of the UK is deep.

I prefer good deep to good prog though, mostly because deep is actually house. And to me, techno is Kraftwerk.
