I reckon there's plenty of house music out there which fully deserves
to be discussed here (hmm... deserves? Am I implying this list
is worth aspiring to be dicussed on? Anyway...) I know
that many people on this list have some sort of chip on their shoulder
about "stupid" dance music but when you start dissing Mark&Tom GC
for creating some of the most sublime house music money can buy... Well
I dunno. House Music is the SOURCE. (hell there nothing like a recent
convert is there :)

No, you can't just use the word house as an insult. I love 76:14 and PM
as much as anyone and the way/the deep isn't really all that different
in style and production values to these releases. Looks like someone
just can't get past the 4/4 beat. If it had a break beat in it like much of 76:14
I bet you'd lap it up. Try the modwheel's (another GC alias for those that
don't know mix of Espiritu's Man don't cry. Its house - with a break and
is beautiful.
To anti house types - may I suggest a remedial course of Herbert,
Motorbass, DJ Sneak, Green Velvet, The ModWheel,
PaperClip People (that's Carl Craig btw, technoheads), Super Discount
and many more...
And while I'm at it - stop looking down your noses at jump up jungle.
All you drill'n'bassers take the new CD from Aprodite Recordings, or
anything from Urban Takeover (especially Mickey Finn's Drop Top
Caddy) stick it up your arse, and see how long you can sit still.
