Lemmiwinks Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 So I don't know if you've noticed but lately (at least in these parts of the World) dancefloors have been invaded by a new type of sound, it sounds kindof like electro house but with a very heavy slightly distorted kick resembling hardcore. Well, I have to admit that at least it's much more engaging than most commercial stuff out there... Only problem, I don't have a clue on how it's called? Anyone knows? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deqNM6FO9rk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ue26GpV9Do Quote

Goa-Head Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 Looks like Electro-electro-House with a slowed down hardstyle beat. Quote

needle ninja Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 Well Showtek is pretty well-known. That is all I can say. Quote
Tatsu Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 According to Beatport at least the first track is labeled as Progressive House. Maybe there is a more concise name for a subgenre around if you a part of that scene? Quote

Lemmiwinks Posted June 6, 2013 Author Posted June 6, 2013 so the wave of new releases continues... this apparently THE sound coming out of Belgium this summer... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aEBlLMyN_0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdE75E1VQHk Quote
needle ninja Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Thanks Lemmiwinks, your my source for finding out what THE sound coming out of Belgium this year is Quote
Lemmiwinks Posted July 12, 2013 Author Posted July 12, 2013 man, it seems like every week at least 20 more tracks like these are made, it's insane! lol Still don't have a clue on how it's called though http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCYcHz2k5x0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xiRpWZg0BA Quote
needle ninja Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 man, it seems like every week at least 20 more tracks like these are made, it's insane! lol Still don't have a clue on how it's called though I'll tell you what I call it: Pop Dance. It's been around for decades, yet it changes over time. It is made quickly, usually in a few weeks. It always sells more than the 'underground' variety because it has the catchy melodies and snappy synthesizers. There is almost never a story or meaning in the music, totally mindless. You can find it all over the world, with a history of sales, distribution is widespread. Quote

Padmapani Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 what about "hard electro house"? it's like electro house but harder, and the term hard electro house sounds as boring as the music itself Quote
