It's classic Chicago House. A track that sounds similar is Robert Owens - Bring Down The Walls. Actually...now that I think of it...if that's a 303 used for the bassline...it probably is Acid House. After 1987 you had a lot of blending of the older Chicago House style and the new 303 acid. But the bassline in Can You Feel it could have been made by whatever guys like Steve Hurley Used on their tracks in the mid 80's, whatever it was. I think it depends on what he used to make the bassline. If it was a 303, then it's acid house, but if it was something else, then probably just Classic Chicago House. It was released a year before Acid Traxx by Phuture...before the acid thing became big...before anyone knew the potential of the litte silver box....except for Marshall Jefferson and his buds. Who knows man. I'd just play it safe and call it Classic Chicago House.


Anyway, this is definitely acid house:

acid house
acid house
acid house
acid house

I don't care if this is the style of house you're talking about...but yeah...this tune is fucking mint. Ask Brett B aka DJKoolaide

I'm pretty sure you'll find sizeable amounts of vehemence for its handbag house concepts among the people from UK here, as Hed Kandi has had a tendency to invade club back rooms and festivals all over the country. That being said, the music is not all bad if you just bother to look bit deeper.

It's about as deep as a 1' ice cube tray. Plastic!

Maybe I've not heard enough.. I don't know. I've listened to one Winter Sessions series or something or other and never let it pollute me again. When I listen to Can You Feel It? my neck and back muscles relax, my shoulders automatically roll back. My breath, pulse and heart slows and mind is cleared. It's like slipping into warm satin. Or suffocating. But a good, warm suffocating, you know? That is deep. I just don't get it from Hed Kandi.

Well I think you're raising the bar a wee bit too much by putting up it against Mr. Fingers But the earliest releases they put out contain some pretty good music, like this one. It's just hard to get to it because of the oodles of coffee table background noise that you have to wade through.

Teh Underneath - Himmel

Terry's Caf� 8

my favorite house album of the moment

Many thanks to all for your posts...
I would say from all of the suggestions posted, nearly half were bang on!
The ones I liked the best were the Daso - T.Anders and the Sequential Pig & Dan remix.
CANNOT stop listening to 'em.
Thanks again everyone!

thought I might be able to restart this topic seeing as how it went so well last time, and because it has been awhile, so I', sure there are a lot more releases siince the last postings, and a lot more members to post them too!
"FloorFiller" & "Iceferno" nailed the type of (loungy) house I was looking for last time around...
Anyone have any more suggestions for tracks that match that type of house?
Thanks.

this is exactly what you are looking for...i think

Jamiroquai - You Give Me Something (Full Intention Club Mix)

Theivery Corporation

Not to do a shameless plug here, but you should listen to this mix I did last summer. I bet you'll like at least the first half, maybe the whole thing, although it slowly gets less loungey and more progressive house-ish. What you're looking for I think is the more "chilled out" side of progressive house, along with chill house/deep house. Here's a link for the mix: http://www.djjoncaserta.com/mixes.htm#waterfall .

Let me know if that's the sort of thing you're looking for.

P.S. Good thread.

louie vega - mozalounge (12inch version)
bill makris - honey
solu music - fade (grant nelson big room mix)
kerri chandler - bar a thym (original & tom middleton cosmos mix)
kerri chandler - so let the wind come (kerri's stash mix)

I'm glad someone started and bumped this thread. Learning a lot of good information here. I was originally an anthem trance kind of guy, but like I stated in my "Getting away from formulaic trance" thread, I'm ready to branch out into something else now. I finally got a good listen to ISOS 5 over the weekend, and Tiesto bashing aside I loved the sound of disc 1! From what I've read, this style is considered progressive trance, and I find it much more relaxing and "intelligent" than the standard anthem tune.

However, since we're discussing house here, can someone explain to me briefly the main differenes between progressive house vs. progressive trance? What are some good progressive house tunes that I should sample in order to get a better idea if this is the direction I'd like to go? Rebel9, Spirit5, and FloorFiller, I'm looking in YOUR direction (cough, hint, elbow, nudge), especially. Thanks, guys.

Try Hernan Cattaneo if you are interested in progressive house. His latest mix cd Renaissance Presents Sequential is quite amazing.

Perrrrrrrfect!
Thanks!
Also, if anyone else is trying to obtain the same kind of house I am, check out other stuff from Daso like "Man in a Box" & "Go Upstairs."
Just go to www.beatport.com and type "daso" in the search area.
Really sweet "Lounge" tracks!

something a little older but definatly an essential track

Eddie Amador-3am

some random loungey deepish house.

Aisle-Golden Sun(Copenhagen mix)(Emanuel and Hajj mix also not bad)
Julien Jabre-Swimming Places(Jerome sydenham mix)
Karen Overton-In Your Loving Arms(Luca Ricci tribal edit)perfect beat for swirling a drink to.
