What is "House Music"?

Wikipedia says "House music is a genre of electronic dance music that originated in Chicago in the early 1980s." It goes on to say "Early house music was generally dance-based music characterized by repetitive 4/4 beats, rhythms mainly provided by drum machines,[17] off-beat hi-hat cymbals, ... House music today, while keeping several of these core elements, notably the prominent kick drum on every beat, varies a lot in style and influence, ranging from the soulful and atmospheric deep house to the more minimalistic microhouse. House music has also fused with several other genres creating fusion subgenres,[17] such as euro house, tech house, electro house and jump house."

Wow!

That's a lot of "house" music.

It seems like you can add any fusion subgenre to house. And that's what I'm doing today. I'm creating a subgenre called "Fun, Funky, Classy, Wedding, Lounge House" (of course I'm joking).

I've created a playlist below that may work well for the super chic urban brides and grooms that want a house vibe without freakin' out your grandparents. This mix could work well during the cocktail hour - or during dinner.

(Disclaimer: In the past 300 weddings we have performed - this type of music may have been appropriate for 20%. So, if this is not your "thing" that's OK. We are just giving options.)

Check out the Spotify playlist below (a mixture of Funky House and Electro Swing) - and, as always - if you have any questions, don't hesitate to email info@nicedj.me CHEERS! Hans
