Stop calling it Deep House
http://www.mixmag.net/music/the-blog/stop-calling-it-deep-house yes yes yes
THANK YOU!!! It’s NU Disco for crying out loud. Sampled old disco records and added a new bass-guitar to it, its not deep house. These bandwagon sheep need to realise this!
Most people don’t understand house music.
The concept of a genre is the most closed minded thing ever created. If dj’s can free their mind and just think of music as Music you can literally play whatever you want in a set. Wanna drop Kayne into a dubstep set…go for it! Want to mix some Little River Band into a deep house set…Why not!!!
Genres is the reason why so many tracks and dj sets sound the same, because producers are aiming for the typical sound of that genre, instead of of letting creativity flow, and then seeing what genre their new track falls into…
Nice little post you made there. I agree wholeheartedly. ![]()
But DJ Patch only plays Reggae.
But DJ Patch only plays Hip-Hop.
But DJ Patch only plays Ghetto Funk.
But DJ Patch only plays Druma and Bass.
But DJ Patch only plays Dancehall.
But DJ Patch only plays Ska.
It’s perfectly ok to mix different genres, that’s what most new producers do anyway. However, it’s retarded to call that deep house when it barely has anything to do with it. There are tonnes of genres closer to the popular sound right now.
Ouch, man! ![]()
I was using creative license… What’s next? Are you gonna start editing mixes???
!
(You know I’m joking - 'cos I haven’t posted any mixes to edit!) ![]()
djeez, what a crybaby. I don’t like that kind of narrowminded ideas. Music styles evolve. And that’s a good thing.
i can see it now. Since the NU DICSO sound is going around, and Daft Punk did their release,
all these websites are going to start posting a “WE HAVE A NEW GENRE of songs for download!”
(beaport, zipdj, etc)
and the music will be Nu Disco… is this something new or are they just jumping on a bandwagon of sorts where
this genre existed for quite a while now, but these websites never pushed it because they were scared it wouldn’t “sell”
Oh wait i have an idea, let me put blonde dreds in my hair, and shave one side of it
then ill call myself Brit-llex and my genre of music is pop-step.
Its a perfect idea i think
this way i get all the Britany spears followers and those who wont let go of Skrillex
lol
Patch only plays weed music ![]()
I dont care less about genre’s anymore, preview each track on the top 10 progressive charts and its nothing but Pop Music in the style of SHM, nothing progressive about it.
I haven’t really taken the Beatport genres seriously for quite some time.
What sort of dnb events do you go to? ![]()
^hahahahah
I have nothing valuable to add to this because it’s all silly. Humans have to categorize things, that’s what we do, no sense fighting it, but it’s all just silly.
yes we do categorize things. and its good in a way, helps us find things easier, but sometimes its really easy to get tunnel vision (musically). Thats why i really try not to listen to individual tracks. I’m really into only listening to mixes, and picking a track i like out of the mix. Because you might like a track, and come to find out its actually “tech house” meanwhile you have been wadding through crates of “deep House” stuff and you probably would have never found that gem. Incidentally I listened to this mix 5 times in a row yesterday, and if your a fan of this type of music (who cares what genre it is)…well just listen to the mix all the way through, and you will figure out why ![]()
If you have to ask, obviously the good ones … ![]()
No no no .. thats disco house, or … well kinda depends on the, and the … well the bassli…
Ah screw it
ITS ALL HOUSE!*
*except when its not
I have got somewhat vexed with the hijacking of genre names. First it was electro, and now deep house.
I get why it’s called deep. For me the differentiation I make is that original deep house stirred definite emotions. This is my favourite original deep house tune:
Deep house these days just seems to be about how it sounds rather than how it makes you feel. And most of it today makes me feel like I’m in a bar rather than wanting to raise my hands in the air and lose myself.
Good call on the Marshal Jefferson, but for me Larry Heard (Mr Fingers) is the soul of Deep House
This is my favourite by far..
I’m standing in a club right now claiming to be the newest deep house night in town. It’s all nu disco. Great …
Hahaha atleast you can admit it!
Genres definitely have a purpose but when one starts to think in such rigid terms, then creativity does suffer. I think genres help beginners learn the elements of tracks. If we’re talking dub step: heavy bass, 70/140BPM, heavy leads etc. It should be used as a guide for beginner producers but once you’re comfortable with the elements then you can decide to think for yourself and think outside the box. If someone had said dutch house must always be 128 BPM, never 110 BPM, we would never have moombahton.
