Would HS82 and Green Velvet be deemed as tech house?
I think you’ve basically described tech house
Tech house is like any other genre. There’s good and bad depending on your tastes. The real loopy tech house is for the most part boring and bad to me. I think HS82 does a pretty good job at keeping tech house fun and interesting.
All down to taste then because Lawler and Fanciulli bore me to tears. The once a year test is a good point imo
Knee Deep In Sound = tech house label
Good tech house tracks tho like this:
Good House and Bad House is all you need to know..
Was it Nick Curly who commmented recently how much bad tech house there was and that 90% of it is rubbish.
I couldn’t agree more. I genuinely have no idea how so much of it gets released. I travel a lot so spend hours just listening to stuff on a plane, and some of it really is awful recently. Feels like the end of Minimal, when everyone realised that 95% of it was actually awful and only 5% (or less) was good material. It makes you appreciate how good the likes of Digweed, Gerber etc are when you listen to a 6 hour set of theirs.

Still waiting on Cox Dates, Cocoon Line Up, PVD new Trance night & Ushuaia Wednesday's!
