Hi, Jason, regarding In The Dark: The Soul of Detroit, you said: 'not so long ago you couldn't give music like this away so it's nice to see people rediscovering Detroit House'... Any idea why this would be the case? What has changed, and what do you think made such music undesirable in this time 'not so long ago'? ~David On Mon, Jul 9, 2012 at 11:33 AM, Jason Brunton irid...@gmail.com wrote: Hi peeps - we did the distribution for this release and I have the pleasure to say that it was one of the biggest sellers of the year - not so long ago you couldn't give music like this away so it's nice to see people rediscovering Detroit House There are some other amazing releases coming on this label too Cheers Jason
Re: (313) Re-issue In The Dark: The Soul of Detroit
From what I gather the trend in Europe is away from Minimal and Tech House to 'Deep House' -- a term that in context covers a multitude of sins. I think that this has upped the visibility of real house music in general and Detroit House in particular. Even if the mainstream of the new 'Deep House' thing is just tech house with more 707 beats and out of context soul vocal samples, it may be a case of rising water floating all boats.

Surely that deep house trend is at least five years old, though? I would almost guess that as far as trendiness it's shifting back towards something else again, as far as trends I would say more than deep house the current popular stuff is like 120bpm, and disco type things, lots of stuff with super 80's type synths, and indie rock influenced songs now with non-soul type vocals. ~David On Mon, Jul 9, 2012 at 12:06 PM, kent williams chaircrus...@gmail.com wrote: From what I gather the trend in Europe is away from Minimal and Tech House to 'Deep House' -- a term that in context covers a multitude of sins.

Re: (313) Re-issue In The Dark: The Soul of Detroit
This probably isn't the forum for such a question, but could someone
give some examples of deep house in contradistinction to other styles
of house?
The term seems to be thrown about very often, but I still have no real
sense of what deep house sounds like as opposed to (for example) jazzy
house or disco house or micro house or whatever.

This is a good example of Deep House. For me a good deep house track has to
have some 313 style moodiness embedded into it… the youtube clip demonstrates
this better than I can explain it.
