If you're around your mid 20s or older you might recall this once played genre of dance music. Back in the late 80s to mid 90's, In the U.S. it was referred to as Freestyle dance music and in broader terms it was referred to as Euro Dance. I'll just post a few of the videos for the old school listeners. |
its still pretty big in california. radio stations bump it on fridays and some mix it during lunch. |

Okay, so I looked up epic house in Iskhur's guide...
Did anyone notice his approach to naming tracks?
He credits original artist and puts "stupid dance mix" in parentheses. :stongue:
But I believe we all know who he's aiming at...

How can you call it dead? From what I've seen, more and more people are listening to them with every passing day. |

And? What do you mean by slim? It's a budding genre, so mentioning it in a thread where we're talking about genres which are for the most part dead seems wholly pointless. |

Easily one of the best albums I have ever heard. Too bad his recent work has not been anywhere near the same quality. |
Anymore it's just a 4 to the floor beat with a generic guitar sample thrown on which codifies a Junkie tune. They aren't necessarily bad, but nowhere near STK tracks :( |

None of those tracks are epic house. Ishkur doesn't actually know what epic house is. |

Did you hear his remix of Fatboy Slim - Weapon Of Choice? That was a refreshing step to the right direction. |

Well that sucks! Any other sets like that out there? |
Blue Amazon Live, 1996 Essential Mix
Check out at lot of the early Renaissance mix CDs, they were all over this sound from Mix Collection 2 through Renaissance Worldwide. Dave Seaman ruled.
I'll dig up some more livesets when I get home. |

This one of the more glaring mistakes of his guide. |
