House music

Each year, each decade and each era is marked with certain sounds promulgating and spreading far and wide during those times. This dynamic of what would be the favored form of music is perhaps the only constant thing in changing times. For the present, the tides in the music industry have never been so diverse. While pop is still dominating the charts, other genres, which were previously churning under the water, are now breaking through the surface - slowly introduced into the masses of mainstream listeners. One such example is 'deep house', a branch of house music and a sister of EDM, progressive house, and its other variations. Deep house has a sound influenced by jazz music mixed with Chicago house and techno sounds of Detroit. House music has its veterans such as Duke Dumont and EDM royalties such as Calvin Harris. In deep house, there is a particular artist rising to be known as the pride of the sound.…

the piece. A faster backbeat will encourage the production of a high-energy song, such as house music, whilst a slow less elaborate backbeat will promote a low-intensity song which can build up progressively like trance or progressive house music (Wilson sayre, 2016). This back beat is usually a four-beat bass drum, made through the use of the drum machine. From there, similar or completely different sounds can be layered to make the back beat more elaborate. In addition, other sounds can be…

Rave Culture How do electronic music, LED Lights, and young people go together? Well you might have guessed a party, but it’s a little more specific than that. What I’m talking about is a rave. I’m here to briefly explore the origins of rave culture, the music, dancing, and even attire. The subculture is a bit odd, and very different from a typical night out. The early rave scene subculture started in the late 80’s in Chicago. Young party-goers attended events called “Acid House Music Parties”.…

I chose to do my intercultural field experience and research paper on the rave community the event I took part in was called "Escape" on the October 27 and 28. I decided to experience this culture because I feel the social construct society has agreed to place on this culture is an extremely negative one, According to Kathryn Sorrells in "Intercultural communication Global and Social Justice" "social constructs exist only because people agree to act like and think like they exist and agree to…

Apartments and houses are very different from one another. I lived in an apartment complex for about six years, and there are plenty of advantages and disadvantages from my experience about that style of living. Living in an apartment is sometimes unsafe. When I was 11 years old, and my brother was 16. My brother tripped onto the street while riding his bike. There was a woman driving over the speed limit and ran my brother over leaving him with a fractured arm. My brother was rushed to the…

an hour or so before sunset, and were off to Dayton. It was about as much fun as a three-hour drive in the evening after a day underneath cars can be. I wasn’t that great, we were both pretty tired and only really talked about music. Until, we saw the traffic on the other side of the highway. That’s all we talked about an hour, there was so much traffic I’ve never seen anything like it. For at least fives miles, people were stopped out of their cars talking to each other on the highway. There…

Excerpt from The Great Fire by Jim Murphy It was Sunday and an unusually warm evening for October eighth, so Daniel “Peg Leg” Sullivan left his stifling little house in the west side of Chicago and went to visit neighbors. One of his stops was at the shingled cottage of Patrick and Catherine O’Leary. The one-legged Sullivan remembered getting to the O’Learys’ house at around eight o’clock, but left after only a few minutes because the O’Leary family was already in bed. Both Patrick and Catherine…

North Richmond Street was not a noisy neighborhood which the siblings and friends enjoy playing around old houses and one of the boys had a desire for love of the neighbor. North Richmond Street was a quiet dead end street until the kids were release from the Christian Brothers’ school. Also on that street, there was an abandoned two alarm house that was far away and lonely from the neighbor’s houses. The rest of the house on that street were aware of the ok living within each other, they…

the big move from New York to Texas. The house we lived in was my childhood home and my husband and I shared it for fifteen years together. This was not going to be an easy task. Our first hurdle was preparing for this huge adventure. Secondly, we needed to drive both cars down. That meant that we would not have the other person to take over driving when our eyelids became as heavy as weights over our eyes. Finally, we would need to settle into this strange new world. My husband’s family…

are many reasons as to why houses are better than apartments. One reason is that you are paying thousands of dollars every year to rent an apartment, and in the end you are not owning anything. Another reason is that you do not have to be so close to your neighbors, and you have your own privacy. Most importantly, houses are more for families, whereas apartments are more like temporary homes for couples. First of all, I can not say that I'm buying a house, but I do believe that I am wasting…
