agreed 100%.
If "dance music" only encompassed 120 bpm and higher, there would be
thousands less great, classic tracks. Pre house, tthe majority of disco,
funk, hip-hop, soul, r&b, and rock songs were not nearly as uptempo as the
newer stuff.

i suppose it does, but i have to say that the people associated with
the "beatdown" style are all amongst the best deejays ive ever seen:
delano smith, mike
I think what the guys are getting at is that Beatdown is a particular feeling
rather than a sound. They're quite keen to avoid labels for types of music.

Eh? That sounds like just about any type of good djing regardless of the
genre.
It's pretty vague but then so is the sound these guys are playing
one a sound is defined and corralled I think you're on the road to ruin
I REALLY hope that it doesn't become a (sub)genre unto itself in the way

There's a fairly new 2x12" called "Electronic Generation" which spills
over into this category as well.
Great stuff.

Some other Theo Parrish/KDJ influenced labels would have to include
Freude-Am-Tamzen and Soul Phiction - both fairly similar

Yeah as per Simon said just now, there is a description of what
'Beatdown' is meant to mean from Third Ear. But I couldn't see it on the
site - I remember it was only on the liner notes of the compilation LP.
There is an extract on the site though: "Is it House? Is it Techno? Just

I guess my understanding of beatdown is similar - slower (ie no faster than
mid-120 bpm), deep as hell, soulful with detroit stylings.
http://www.beatdownsounds.net/ has a good description, though I wonder if it's
simply a micro-genre. I just mention it because I've found a good amount of

Eddie Fowlkes had a set for i THINK around $35 or so. But I got
fliers for most of the major parties of the XL weekand $50 was a
bargain. Sean Combs' party? $150 for regular admittance, $500 for
VIP. This was the norm.
