Here in Australia too

Theres a guy in my class who loves hardstyle and apparently electro. He only likes electro house though lol

On the topic of names:

Prince John: Such an unusual name, "Latrine." How did your family come by it?
Latrine: We changed it in the 9th century.
Prince John: You mean you changed it TO "Latrine"?
Latrine: Yeah. Used to be "Shithouse."
Prince John: It's a good change. That's a good change!


Yeah, Robin Hood: Men in Tights. Classic flick. That part came to mind immediately.

Whatever you call it, I think the most amusing thing is how cleanly some people rode the bandwagon and now reject the sound in perfect form.

Haha, SOO TRUE!

Personally, I always despised it.

seriously, have any of you guys every been to a club? this shit sounds sick when played on a good system and to be honest its a lot easier to dance to than trance. i like trance much more but electro house lends itself better to dancing in a club envirnment. there are also some really awsome artists out there like justice and mstrkrft(mastercraft) that are starting to appeal to audiences that otherwise would never listen to EDM. a few weeks ago mstrkrft played at a huge music festival in atlanta called echo project. it was mainly a rock band venue but there were some electronic acts. my friend who doesnt even like EDM said that mstrkrft was by far the best show. i personally love the genre.

Justice is 'electro' house now? That's news.

And drop the whole "it good on loud speakers, yah!" argument. That's the whole point of a sound system costing a couple grand, to make music sound wicked cool awesome. And yes, it is easier to dance to, because all it entices from you is stomp-along fun, probably the easiest form of dancing for inebriated club folks with no sense of rhythm.

But let's face facts here, son: there are far better tunes out there than your bog-standard BLATHPTHPPTHPTT PPBBT-HHBTT-TPBBTHPTTTHHHPH stomp-along nonsense. Why support the mediocre?

...because it is really really hard to make a track that sounds good in a club on a massive system. Context has nothing to do with it whatsoever.

I still like Spektrum - Kinda New (Tiefschwarz Remix). And Alter Ego - Rocker. And Infusion - Better World (Wink Interpretation). Those tracks rocked. Haven't heard anything as good as it in a while, though.

True that.

Nowadays Dave Spoon is one of the few that might deserve a mention.

Edit: Regarding Rocker and Kinda New.. Add Bucci Bag to the list, no?


Posted by headphonez on Nov-07-2007 16:21:

dave spoon is garbage now...he had his time.



and justice is FAR FROM ELECTRO HOUSE...jesus h christ.


Posted by headphonez on Nov-07-2007 16:28:

There are some great tunes out there you just have to look for em...


Pryda - Madderferrys...


Shena - Electrosexual - Aston Shuffle Remix

Mark Knight + D.Ramirez - Colombian Soul

Ida Engberg - disco volante (sebastien leger remix)

Bass Kleph - Coup detat (Hook n Sling Remix)

Groove Armada - Get Down (Henrik B Remix)

I do agree, and this comes from an electro house DJ...that 95% of the electro tunes out there, especially on beatport...are absolute 100%-pure garbage "electro-by-numbers" shit.

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT ELECTRO IS THOUGH - YOU DICK HEAD.


Even in a thread about the term 'electro house' not being the correct choice of phrase, people still manage to use it as if it was the real deal. I've never known so many spastics congregate in one place like how they do on TA. Amazing.

Yes I have and it sounds awful...If clubs aren't spinning hiphop, that's one of the only forms of EDM you'll hear. Electro-house is one of the worst forms of EDM, IMO, so why would I be excited about it becoming popular? Also, I can dance to trance better.
