There was a thread very similar to this maybe a month ago.
I'm into progressive house, but I prefer drum'n'bass, techno and nu skool breaks over it.

Originally posted by MrJiveBoJingles I think the main reason I've never gotten into much of house is that a lot of it is centered around vocals. I like the kind of dance music that can hypnotize me (put me in a "trance" I guess) and most of the time vocals detract from that for me. I know others look at it differently, though, and I do like the occasional house track.

What the hell?

House music is as much centered around vocals as Trance is, and that is to say, very little.

Or are you talking about super clubby house? Is that what you think Househeads listen to? Non-stop diva house with black women screaming and a non-changing tribal drum pattern that lasts for 7 hours?

I hope that isnt what your perspective is on House music, because House music stretches over a wide range of sound, including deeper, jazzier stuff, to full on rumbling electro basslines.. And everything in between.

That used to be my perception of house back then, and why I hated it. Thank god the tribal house hype is dead, it sucked ass.

lol, so many subgenres to understand. no wonder the average person stereotypes electronic music like crazy.
just house or trance or techno itself has many many many many different sounds
