 In this section (I hope it will be
permanent column of our magazine) I
I will introduce our illiterate (in
sense of modern music) people with no-
new trends in musical culture.
  Today we will talk about such a new
fashionable dance direction
HOUSE, and in general let's touch on a little
all modern electronic music.
  Well, let's start from the beginning... A long time ago

the popular style of music is
Disco. Disco! Of course you heard everything
oh disco! After all, this is the same disco
which our parents sang wildly.
  Well, the 90s, our years, have arrived.
Everyone is sick of disco, and so is the generation.

  Here I would like to do a little...
ric digression one by one philo-
Sophian question.  As I already said, in
culture of our time -culture
postmodernism there is a general ten-
trend towards minimalism (I hope not
explain what these terms mean). This
is expressed literally in everything - in the archi-
texture, clothing, painting (remember
Malevich), and of course in music -

spiral: Everything in the world repeats itself, maybe
being born on a new level in the next
round of it.

 Okay, let's get back to the topic of our statistics.
yi.  I would like to immediately note that
disco gave birth to more than just HOUS. From-
initially they rest on the disco with their cores
we have two directions : HOUSE and SPEED
GARAGE  - also now very popular on
advanced dance floors.  GenerallyHOUSE and
SPEED GARAGE are very related between
yourself.  The most obvious difference between their co-

much easier in this sense, and tan-
it is expressed much more simply, in one word -
It's a total bummer, no matter what. (that's me about
some sub-directions in HOUSE, because
there are some really tower busters here
rhythms).

  So HOUSE has a number of directions
within itself, with a number of important differences.

  The first direction of HOUS is
DISCO-HOUSE.As the name suggests, it
didn't go far from DISCO. Basis - weight-
lye, “Colored” rhythms of DISCO in the new tan-
tselny sound.


  VOCAL-HOUSE -is based on singing.
Here it should only be noted that
as in most modern dances
val directions, singing does not carry any
what semantic load is used
mainly for arrangement.

  In addition, there are a number of other areas:
HARD-HOUSE, CLUB-HOUSE  and others -
It’s impossible to list them all.

  The most famous group in Kotlas is
We are playing HOUSE : BROOKLING
BOUNCE, KLUBHEADS, and of course on-
group 666, which made noise in the past, with its
famous songs:  "Paradoxx",
"Amokk", "Alarma". Of the Russians they used
niters are most famous:
D.J.Groove, TRIPLEX, ARRIVAL.


  Many new Russians (not to be confused with new
Vorusskie) pop teams began to use
use HOUSE-fish in your "carts"
ki.  An example would be inserts in
song "Don't look for me" by Demo group
(crap? :-).  By the way, music for DEMO
(not to be confused with MEGADEMO) writes Dima Pos-
Tyvalov is a participant in the ARRIVAL project (Before
Why did the poor guy stoop for the sake of the Gopniks).
  Well, finally, all that remains is to add -
to say: People, stop mumbling,
let's listen to progressive music!
