I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, House is one of my least favorite genres of electronic music. This week’s solipsistic NATION, however, features some of the sexiest House music you’ll ever likely to hear.
You may be wondering that if don’t like House why do I play it on solipsistic NATION. The answer is simple: I play the best of all genres of electronic music on solipsistic NATION. Even House.
Why I don’t like House is difficult to define. My initial answer is that House often sounds cheap. The cheesey synths, the lame drum tracks and boring bass lines just put me to sleep. Sounding cheap isn’t necessarily a bad thing, though. There are many artists who can craft great music out of those same elements but I think most musicians who create House music simply fall into the most overused clichés of the genre. It’s artists like Dorfmeister and Chuck Love who appear on today’s show who keep House fresh, exciting and oh so sexy!
