i almost threw in the towel the other night when i was at a party and some dude, after fucking up like three segues in a row, started scratching over a kompakt speicher track. it sounded so bad, and i was so appalled, that i thought, right then and there, that enough was enough. if the dj is fucking up, i just go home. i don't have the tolerance to stick around the way i used to.

A lot of hip-house was little more than speedy Chicago house, lean and mechanical. Sometimes the choruses were melodic. Often, Lyn Collins' "Think (About It)" was sampled and interpolated liberally (not just the "Whoo! Yeah!" as heard in "It Takes Two," and, y'know, EVERYWHERE ELSE, but even in similar high-hat patterns).
The thing is that I've spent a lot of time and money getting to know hip-house and I wouldn't want to hear a three-hour set of it. Dan's OTM in going there from time to time, but not setting up camp. It's far too lame of a genre to engage people over a length of time -- it's best use to punctuate. That's the only chance you ever have of making it sound cool, and ultimately, making it work.
M. Doc's "It's Percussion" is the best hip-house song of all time, by the way.

seriously, all dj's know that some crowds just won't ever get into what you're playing, usually if i have tried everything and i can't do it, and they're not being assholes, i'll stick around and just play discretely, or ask if one of the other dj's (if there is one) wants to take over. but most of the time, you can find a happy medium. if it's a club and not a bar, chances are most people there came to drink and dance, the bartender doesn't just hand them shitty drinks they can't drink-- you could be equally accommodating without giving up too much.

― blueski, Thursday, 26 July 2007 10:10 (sixteen years ago) link
Honestly, this is no joke, but I downloaded whoomp there it is a few weeks back. . . It works perfectly under everything.
I think I have to make a mission out of removing the 'guilty' from guilty pleasure that's attached to hip house, it's great!
― mehlt, Thursday, 26 July 2007 16:07 (sixteen years ago) link
And isn't the Villalobos remix of cellphones dead, at times, just a contemporary hip-house track?
And to go back to my previous post, Whoomp There it is + A Walking Contradiction by Adam Beyer is great, I was surprised to find out how fast whoomp there it is was, at like 135 BPM, not to mention how many obscenities it has, for something that was so popular among so many. But enough about whoomp there it is. . .

When I first started buying music my favourite type of music was hip house - stuff like the Beatmasters, Tyree and Fast Eddie. Good times. Except everyone else at school was into stuff like Dire Straits & Aerosmith at that time so they would mock my "rap crap".

Ha. It's too bad I have so much childhood trauma attached to being called Fast Eddie, because hotdamn his hair in that video.
Yeah, I mentioned this in another thread, but I was so disappointed with that marc romboy Tyree collaboration from last year. Barely rapped on it, if at all, just zzzzz slowed down flangered vocals in the "why are the vocals so low" vein, over some also pretty zzzzz production.
It's probably better in the end, I can't even imagine how upset I'd be if Hip House ended up getting an ironic 'novelty-dance music' treatment.

DJ's worst nightmare:
The Empty Floor
― Bob Six, Sunday, 8 March 2009 11:34 (fifteen years ago) link
I gathered my record boxes together and slunk out of the DJ booth in shame, feeling utterly gutted and humiliated. My friends said all the right things – it’s a shit club anyway, your music was far better, don’t give up, you’ll get the right crowd another time. But I was inconsolable.
This, dear reader, is an object lesson in what not to do if you’re starting out as a DJ. I had broken two cardinal rules. I had made no attempt to connect with my audience, and I hadn’t allowed for any flexibility with the music.
― Bob Six, Sunday, 8 March 2009 11:35 (fifteen years ago) link
wow, great find.
I've always found the delineation between those styles of hip-house interesting, with the Chicago house producers on one hand, where the music is great chicago house and the rapping a bit less top-notch, and the golden-era hip-hop artists who cut house tracks, Jungle Brothers, Queen Latifa, Special Ed etc, where sometimes the music is great but usually it's a good rapper doing a novelty club song (not that there's anything wrong with that...) but for the chicago guys to even cite a difference to someone like KC Flightt, who's a wickedly awesome, mad underrated producer, is interesting. I do see a difference I suppose, those DJ International Hip-House records sonically are really hip-hop at house tempos, the samples, the scratching etc, whereas KC Flightt's music is a bit more innovative house music...with rapping.
