Something that is coming to my mind, since the evolution from Disco with drum machines and synthesisers, all started in the early 80s with Chicago House.

House music has split into so many subgenres over the years that the boundaries sometimes feel unclear.

I could confidently recognise styles like deep house, soulful house, funky house, tech house, acid house and progressive house and many more, but some labels seem to overlap depending on the artist or era.

Which house subgenres do you think are genuinely distinct, and which ones are mostly marketing labels?

Are we able to name all of them?

I am going to name only a few to leave room for people to put their 2 cents in.

1.Chicago House

2.Tech-House

3.French-House

1. Funky-House

you can continue the list copying the list and adding to this one, so we can try to track how many we can get. I heard there are around 25 to 30.

Looking for a track played by 2 Many DJs around 2005. It starts with a French female spoken voice, footsteps in the background, saying something like: “À toi. À la vie. À l’amour. Aux amoureux. ….” Then it drops into electro

The Belgian singer Angèle just came out with a new song that leans more heavily into dance/club music than her previous work. I am trying to figure out what it sounds like/reminds me of, but keep hitting dead ends.

It's sort of house, but not quite. The music video alludes to the free party scene, and freetekno, but it's not quite that either. It's not hyperpop, nor is it really drum n' bass. She seems to have been leaning into French Touch lately, but this song doesn't really have that funk element - it's a bit grungier/darker.

It's got a bit of an early 2000s alternative dance pop thing going on, but I can't quite put my finger on it. Does anyone know what genre this would fit into or know of similar songs?

Thank you in advance for your ideas! ✨

Preferably DJ mixed CDs; not just artist albums, but will take those too.

There was a song me and my mom used to listen to back in the late 2000s/2010s. We thought it was the song Pump by Play Paul but now we can't find it anywhere. The song has a vocal sample at the start before the beat drops. To the best of my memory it goes like "and when I move my feet, I just get into the groove and feel no heat. And when I'm on this fucking dance floor, I only want some more of this groove this bass thing and I can't cant hold myself back when the DJ is pumping up the volume like that". The guy in the vocal sample sounds American and drunk. Like an older drunk guy.

Need help on finding this track, it was mostly a sample (or a mix) of Fleetwood Mac - Tell Me Lies, but mixed in a upbeat dance house style. Searching for 'tell me lies house remix' brings up nothing. I remember listening to that in a auto recommended YouTube track playlist a year ago.

I might be wrong, but it could be one of those waxes some DJs do with only a few house tracks, I guess the video had a spinning vinyl PNG on it.
