[Dynagroove] throwing elbows in house music

Freddy Fox,
 Your statement about rave house being not real house but 'progressive
garbage'
 sounds like the same ol' house-snobbery to me.

 I think to really love house music is to accept the vastness of diversity of
styles within the form, without passing judgement on those musical offshoots
you dont personally like or care to understand.

  I have been involved and hosting events since 1991. I am in my 15th year of
this music. 10 years on the East Coast and 5 years on the West Coast. Our
events tend to slide all across electronic music genres without a care for
boundaries.

 I recently hosted a room at a full blown rave entitled “Groovy”.

 I decided to do all house music, with Juan from ECB, Eric Davenport, Soul
Free, Farron, Mario Dubbz and Franke Jr.

 There was also a full blown “trance area” and “hardcore area”.

 The magical thing about that night was that both the trance and hardcore
rooms were empty.

 >From the second the first record hit our room till the last record stopped,
we had the most people in that room dancing all night. It was amazing because
I don’t think half those kids knew that this was real “house” as a
matter of fact, becuase House music is always promoted at raves, but it ends
up being some kinda progressive garbage, so these kids really do not know what
house music is.

 The beauty was that they were there because the music was the best there.

 I would recommend some of you real house dj’s to get involved and play some
of these raves. If there becomes real house rooms at these all age events you
will begin to feed the next generation of househeads. Try not to be so elitist
with your music and events. Promote your flyers at the all age events, I never
see house flyers anywhere except for house parties. Open your door a little.

 It works. I have seen it before my own eyes.
