The way I like to think of it, microhouse emphasizes the truncated samples, the porous textures, the creation of space within the track. tech-house, of course, can do this as well. tech-house is an interesting term because so many people rigorously avoid it, like john tejada. I initially included a passage in the Wire article talking about London tech-house, which at the time (2000/2001) seemed to be a sort of nationalistic thing, a very scene-y, pro-London vibe, around a few specific artists & the Fabric club. (cf old Jockey Slut article.) I haven't heard so much about it in a while.

if you mean contemporary stuff, there's still plenty of great deep house coming out on paper, africanism, glasgow underground, etc. etc. etc. if you mean classic, yeah, i could use some pointers too!

fuck yeah. his "2 after 909" track is one of the best things going right now. even if it is just new wave. :) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
