For many who are familiar with electronic music and rave culture, House is a name synonymous with deep passion. In 1977, it became an independent extension of the dancehall music scene from the late 1960s. As a result of its unique urban underground presence, it spread like wildfire through the nightclubs and dancefloors starting at the Warehouse in Chicago, then onward to New York, Philly, Washington DC and surrounding cities. What it did was brought together hipsters from communities of LGBTQ, African Americans, Latinos, Caucasians and other nationalities together to form a new culture of love and peace.
Nowadays, every sports event, get-together, workout center, and lobby across the globe plays house music in the background. Still most don't know how it started!
The house genre has accomplished the following:
Gave local DJs in inner-cities more exposure
Lent a hand in desensitizing the taboo of LGBT communities
Combined African, Latino and Caribbean dance music and styles
Opened the doors for underground singers, performers, and others behind the scene in the music field to spread their talents
Created a new subculture that preached love and peace after Woodstock
Gave the fashion world music to express bodily expressions
House Music grew so rapidly that it brought in a variety of music artists from Pop, R&B, Soul, Jazz, Rock N Roll, Hip Hop, and other genres to create a new sound fusion.
Top musical artists like Kym Mazelle, Madonna, Janet Jackson, Whitney Houston, Cece Peniston, The Jungle Brothers, Queen Latifah, Chrystal Waters and many others have contributed to the history of House Music.
