    Default electro house?

    what do you think of it?

    personally i'm lovin sebastien leger & (of course) cirez d.. its become a little flooded (as every hyped genre does) and that bloody "hands up for detroit" tune makes me sweat with anger but some of it can add an element of funk at the begining of a techno set.

    any thoughts?

    i love it! some really good stuff out there. shamless plug but you'll probably like my mix in the filez section cos i've got a few bits on there by mr leger. He's really on form at the minute.

    most of the stuff i hear in that genre im not too fond of, though i'm not too familiar with many producers of that genre. leger is a dope producer......but i think i would say his tracks sound more techy nowadays, compared to his disco house tunes years back

    I like a lot of what I've heard, don't really know who to listen out for or anything though... I've got few of the mouseville releases but on the whole I prefer to listen to other people playing it rather than mixing it myself.
    Oh wow - myspace :coffee: http://www.myspace.com/robsoliton

    i love it, but as with anything there's line of cheesy vs good. leger for sure rocks.

    i am quite into it. can't talk about a set context because i rarely dj and if so to me or friends at the most. must check leger! i wouldn't say limit it to the beginning of a set, same as with minimal. i think it would be grand if more djs took up the task and mixed it all up. not like: "uh, oh, no i have got to get into the full-on phase etc. etc. i truely hate the ''play minimal for the first 1/2 hour or so''. with minimal i mean the 'minimal style' , not necessarily more sparse, stripped down pieces, which i would understand. drunk waffle, i know but i like tunes with a firm 2 and 4 basis (snares in particular).
    not to keen on some of the sawy short note basslines but i guess every style has it's clichees. mix it all up, i say :)
