House music

I fail to see how this is House?
Classified as Electro House on Beatport? Maybe they should recategorize it?

Or maybe I should keep Electro House outta this thread hehe....

I'll be honest the only House music I am into is electro house, my due apologies. But thanks for shedding light on this I suppose the videos I posted are more towards the electro end of the house spectrum.

I made sure the videos I posted and artists referenced (Light Year, Digital Freq & Pyramyth, and Fukkk Offf) were all a certain kind of 'House' artist before posting here I will have you know.

heh, no problem, and I am not a mod here, but when you compare "electro house" to the house music of chicago and new york of the 80s and 90s, and more recent stuff produced in the same direction, you see that what was originally House music has little to do with Electro House besides maybe a 4/4 rhythm structure. listen to the last track posted by staroceanhouse. this is classic funky house music. house music can also be darker and more moody, but still doesn't sound like electro house. House music is heritage of black music from the USA, and almost all the originators of house and techno from chicago and detroit were african americans. this is the vibe and feel I associate with house music, but this is completely lacking in electro house imho.

House music the way I see it is melodic, funky, very emotional but lacking these hard buildups and drops common in what nowadays is called "EDM".

but don't mind me too much, I am a DJ and music snob and shouldn't be taken too seriously ;)
 
I feel a need to extend an apology here, and frankly say that electro house as a genre is a disgrace to what House truly is.

I truly am sorry for being so bold as to portray those artists as representing the genuine essence of House in anyway, shape, or form.

Genre debauchery. Anyways those electro house vibe days are behind me, no need to cling onto them haha.

An offering to show my respect for this thread,
