The good stuff. None of the Euro trash, infinite-remix of Tetris bullshit, though there is some good French house out there.
I’m near SF so there are some good spots here. My favorite DJs:
Joey Negro - Back to the Scene of the Crime is one of the best ablums I’ve ever heard. He’s probably my favorite DJ.
Miguel Migs - currently listening to 24th St Sounds (2 disc). Second favorite.
Cedric Gervais - good Miami resident
Mark Farina - big fan of the Mushroom Jazz series, particularly volumes 2 and 5
Julius Papp - don’t know any good albums, but he’s good live
Derrick Carter - have a a 64 min track with him called ‘Derrick Carter and the Funky Decknicians’
Roger Sanchez
I know there are a ton more. I like more jazzy or disco-ey house. Stuff with piano or sax is always good. Any good recs? Been away from it for a while but starting listening to house again, just got me thinking.

Isn’t this just the soundtrack for Taking ecstasy and playing with glow sticks.

btw guys… im like to dabble in a bit of DJing…
i recently did a LIVE house mix. would love some transatlantic feedback.
pm me your email address if your game…
its kind of slightly minimal house/techno. 30 mins long.

I’ve done some DJ sets too, but to be honest. House, trance, minimal ect… are so fuckin easy to mix.
Try spinning some drum & bass, that shit will floor you. It’s hard!
i dont find DnB all that much harder. ive done a few decent mixes of DnB stuff aswell.

Really eh, I’d like to hear it. It depends what kind of drum & bass though, I like to listen to the stuff from 1993-1997. I like a lot of newer stuff too, but the classics are my favourite.

i take back what i said about hardstyle. i just listened through a bunch of tracks and they all sucked to me lol. everything sounded way too similar.
i guess ill just stick with french flatbeat for now =/[/quote]
Bush…didn’t mean ALL Euro stuff. I had to school my sister on what real house is. All she listens to is this bubble-gum pop perversion of house. I dig some of the older stuff as well.
I don’t dig DnB in general. I guess my tastes are more “west-coast” house.

…it kinda helps when you post links.
regular house music is generally too weak for me. i like the hard-house better.
certain stlyes of electronica are just too hard to differentiate too. most the stuff im digging right now is out of france, netherlands and AUS.

I also like more of the hard-house. Hardstyle and hardbass are pretty good too IMO.
I like trance. I once spent a week in Ibiza and danced next to Diddy
Check this out- it is the theme from Platoon and sends chills down my spine every time
