I have a big problem with the history as presented in this series.

It totally ignores what was going on in continental Europe. Electro outfits like Kraftwerk and later New Wave bands really led the way for EDM years before Chicago House existed.

If you don't believe me, listen to "Situation" by Yazoo, recorded in 1982.

I'm not saying the Chicago school wasn't important, but rather that it was simply one step in the evolution of EDM, NOT the origin of it.

Disco and classical had sex while watching a sci-fi movie. Their child: trance.

Hmmm I know what you mean by that, and it's true there were Americans frustrated because they tried to bring forth EDM in America and their efforts were soundly rejected, so they went overseas.

But does the documentary claim to be so comprehensive? Obviously in saying "The History of House Music", there was kinda that big thing known as acid house overseas

I would imagine any "Encyclopaedia Electronica" would be a nightmare.

I actually have not watched this documentary . . . will have to make time sometime.

I'm glad alot of people found this interesting !!!! I was talking to RENE from Blackmarket records in Toronto about this and he even showed me his PARADISE GARAGE member card. I couldn't believe it!!! If you want to know a little bit more about the paradise garage or the introduction of house to the UK I suggest you go and see him.

nice one mate, its a pretty wicked doco, but a tad bit on the jerky side
