Steve Bug and his buddy "DJ Clay" (not sure if that's correct) came to
perth recently and played a great set of microhouse.

I love it, even if I did find the wire article to be mostly a wordy,
hulking morass of incomprehensibility. I swear, if I had to write an
article on microhouse it would just be a list of labels, artists, and
releases. 

It's a pretty broad term the way the Wire uses it anyway - the stuff
done by Thomas Brinkmann in his Soul Center guise (as opposed to his
really clicky noisy stuff like 'klik') is quite different to the sort
of stuff that luomo does. Luomo, Soul Center, Hakan Lidbo etc are
mostly soulful stripped back house, whereas your Clicks n cuts, farben,
peter f speiB, etc is much more experimental glitchy stuff.

I love it all anyway so I'm not bothered. The Kid606 track on Clicks n
Cuts 2 is absolutely the bomb.

In our scene we refer to microhouse as "Funkenhaus" which I think is a
lot better.

ps Force Tracks is all good except for a certain Yoko Mono release -
stay away from that one!
