1ª CYBERPARTY SOULFUL & DEEP HOUSE






Este es un mensaje muy especial. Es una convocatoria para una propuesta nueva, motivado por intentar daros las gracias a todos los que me habéis acogido tan carñosamente.

Sobre todo para aquellos que necesitan no sentirse solos, saber que esto es una gran comunidad, que esta música está viva y tiene un legado impresionante, que te hace vivir, que te pone en un mundo aparte, mejor, más claro y con más luz.

Vamos a celebrar entre todos que llega el verano.

Y lo vamos a celebrar un día , que espero sea el primer viernes de Junio, cada uno en su casa, o en un botellón con amigos, o en el bar o el chiringuito de un amigo.... en soledad, o con más gente, con vuestra gente, una cenita en casa, unas copas, y a las 11 de la noche en punto, pondremos todos al mismo tiempo una sesión.

Este fín de semana ha estado en mi casa STARGATE, y aparte de pasar unos días muy buenos, con verano ya aquí en la Costa del Sol, hemos descubierto lo que para nosostros y a nuestro juicio, puede ser uno de los mixes de este año y de toda la vida.

En cierta forma es también un homenaje a los señores portugueses de deepersoul.blogspot.com

Un trabajo formidable en el país vecino, y una pasión increíble en lo que hacen. Una auténtica comunidad.

En este blog, hay una sesión de SammyRock, uno de los habituales a DeepHousePage.

La sesión DeeperSoul Session 33, de Sammy Rock es un repaso por el HOUSE, desde una perspectiva muy rítmica, percusiva, afrricana, pero también trágica y grandiosa.

Llena de promos y de remezclas nuevas. Técnica excelente y ua selección musical fuera de lugar.

Este hispano de USA vuelve a la raíz y te quedas después con ganas de más... cada tema supera al anterior, con una intensidad que se mantiene hasta el final.

Esa va a ser la sesión. Hay muchas y lo se, pero esta es crucial para ver y demostrar que hoy en día, en pleno año 2006 la llama sigue viva. Que es para compartir con los amigos. Que es para los que no quieren tirar la toalla, los que necesitan esta respuesta. Cuando en las letras se dice HOUSE NATION, es por una realidad. Que se grite en francés, inglés, español, turco o nepalí es lo de menos. Somos una misma familia.

Es el pricipio. Esa noche todos estaremos en la misma fiesta. Y durante ese tiempo, ¿por qué no? saludar a la gente en un post y contar cómo lo estamos pasando. Y para darnos un abrazo entre todos.
Cada uno con su gente, con sus amigos, con sus compañeros de armas, para celebrar que es verano, la sensualidad y la pasión por la vida.

WE ARE TRUE BELIEVERS.


Y gracias, a la gente de DEEPERSOUL por hacer lo que hacen.

UN SALUDO MUY ESPECIAL A TODA LA GENTE DE ONLYHOUSEMUSIC

THE HISTORY OF THE HOUSE




The roots to 1985

Like it or not, house was first and foremost a direct descendant of disco. Disco had already been going for ten years when the first electronic drum tracks began to appear out of Chicago, and in that time it had already suffered the slings and arrows of merciless commercial exploitation, dilution and racial and sexual prejudice which culminated in the 'disco sucks' campaign. In one bizarrely extreme incident, people attending a baseball game in Chicago's Komishi Park were invited to bring all their unwanted disco records and after the game they were tossed onto a massive bonfire. Disco eventually collapsed under a heaving weight of crass disco versions of pop records and an ever-increasing volume of records that were simply no good. But the underground scene had already stepped off and was beginning to develop a new style that was deeper, rawer and more designed to make people dance. Disco had already produced the first records to be aimed specifically at DJs with extended 12" versions that included long percussion breaks for mixing purposes and the early eighties proved a vital turning point. Sinnamon's 'Thanks To You', D-Train's 'You're The One For Me' and The Peech Boys' 'Don't Make Me Wait', a record that's been continually sampled over the last decade, took things in a different direction with their sparse, synthesized sounds that introduced dub effects and drop-outs that had never been heard before.
But it wasn't just American music laying the groundwork for house. European music, spanning English electronic pop like Depeche Mode and Soft Cell and the earlier, more disco based sounds of Giorgio Moroder, Klein & MBO and a thousand Italian productions were immensely popular in urban areas like New York and Chicago. One of the reasons for their popularity was two clubs that had simultaneously broken the barriers of race and sexual preference, two clubs that were to pass on into dance music legend - Chicago's Warehouse and New York's Paradise Garage. Up until then, and after, the norm was for Black, Hispanic, White, straight and gay to segregate themselves, but with the Warehouse, opened in 1977 and presided over by Frankie Knuckles and the Garage where Larry Levan spun, the emphasis was on the music. (Ironically, Levan was first choice for the Warehouse, but he didn't want to leave New York). And the music was as varied as the clienteles - r'n'b based Black dance music and disco peppered with things as diverse as The Clash's 'Magnificent Seven'. For most people, these were the places that acted as breeding grounds for the music that eventually came to be known after the clubs - house and garage.

Right from the start there was a difference in approach between New York and Chicago. "All of the records coming out of New York had been either mid or down tempo, and the kids in Chicago wouldn't do that all night long, they needed more energy" commented Frankie Knuckles after his move to Chicago. The Windy City was seduced to a far greater extent by the European sound and when the records started to come, it showed. Whereas garage in New York evolved more smoothly from First Choice and the labels Salsoul, West End and Prelude, there was no such evolution in Chicago. Opinions still differ as to what the first house record was, but it was certainly made by Jessie Saunders and it was on the Mitchball label - probably Z Factor's 'Fantasy', but there was also another Z Factor tune which went by the name of 'I Like To Do It In Fast Cars'. 'Fantasy' sounds extremely dated now but ten years ago it was like a sound from another planet, with echoes of Kraftwerk's heavily synthesized string sounds, a Eurobeat bassline and a simple, insistent drum machine pattern. Suffice to say, the record remained obscure outside the close-knit urban Chicago scene.
