I don't know any definite definitions, but most house uses a TR-909 drum machine and a basic 4-to-the-floor drum beat, you know...dum-cha-dum-cha! Ofcourse, there's lots of different sub genres, deep house, prog house, handbag house etc
And sorry if you weren't serious, I can't believe you don't know what house is, its one of the biggest if not THE biggest dance genre present =) Ofcourse I'm not laying in to you either, its easier when you hear a persons tone of voice

House is a giant all encompasing genre simmilar to rock, jazz or IDM. Everything from Frankie Knuckles to The Orb is considered house + all that 'cheesy house' stuff that gets played in the suckier clubs.

I love the idea of putting 'acid' before any type of music. Acid house, acid jazz, acid rock, acid flamengo. All it is is a 4/4 beat and one of those digital synths playing a simple melody over it. All it intends to do is make you dance. Not a lot more.

i care aint house: the term house is usually used to mean stuff with that 4tothafloor beat (although it is used too widely) but basically if you imagine disco with synth drums and chordy bits on top. when it works it really works but 90% of it is just a soul sample over the same drumbeats as every other house record (thud thud thud thud or thud clap thud clap)

ICBYD is NOT House....
The good House-records are snowed under by millions and millions of bad House-records IMHO. A bit like Hiphop :(

there is some really soulful and beautiful house, but you're likely not to find it. i know this doesn't answer your question. most is pretty bad. i'm sure somebody will write a program that will replace the house dj someday and there will be a constant supply of the generic dance music for all.

i don't have any clue. sometimes i think i'm listeing to techno, and somebody says something about it being "tech-house." what i do know is if it sounds like disco mixed smoothly with modern techno production then it is likely house music.

Some house is just old mo-town with a 4/4 - 808 or 909 beat underneath and played at 126 BPM. Other stuff is, as Canerfold said, disco mixed with techno.

heh, tech house... it seems like there is a classification for each specific song... what I really get a kick out of is when people stick core at the end of things... Jazz-core, Rap-core, IDM-core, etc, etc... :)

...old school stuff, house, detroit techno influences...
on Warp records...
Various artists...
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE 1 (warp6)
10+1 INFLUENCES (WARP67)
10+2 CLASSICS (WARP68)
on Rephlex...
UNIVERAL INDICATOR (cat117)
808 State- Newbuild EP
...also alot of Aphex stuff is influenced by Acid House and Deroit techno which dates back to the mid to late 80s, before the Trance scene of the 90s.
alot of the hard/fast tracks on Drukqs are RDJs attempt to take acid to a new fucked up level, like Cock/Ver10
here is list of terms i copied from www.allmusic.com
Related Styles: House Disco Hi-Nrg Newbeat Techno Club/Dance Hardcore Techno Rave Trance New Jack R&B Tribal-House Freestyle Acid Alternative Dance Detroit Techno Electronica Funky Breaks Gabber Progressive House Happy Hardcore Ambient House Madchester Big Beat Goa Trance Tech-House Experimental Jungle Minimal Techno IDM
don't get so hung up on labels, they are just over-simplified labels to try to pigeonhole styles...

There's just SOOOO many alternate labels and genres, and different categories and groupings... and the majority of the ''sub-genres'' of a genre sound the same anyway!!!! Seems like just changing the length of a fucking song will put you in a new genre... ''6 Minute House'', ''5:32 House'',
''7:08 Written by London Crack Addict House''...

I don't like dance music at all, unless it's HARD-EDGED dance like early 4/4 Aphex Twin.
