I suggest you invest in a recording studio...equipment, real estate, the whole shabang...

When you have a recording studio, invite the local electronica artists to record their stuff in your studio and perhaps have a contract signed up with you.

Then press CDs and sell them... marketing costs and other considerations should be considered as well

This is the only thing I can think of to have Pinoy electronica more exposure

2. Do you think you are the true school Electronica Artists? baka next year hinde na uso ang House music at hinde ka na rin in.

I humbly disagree that house music is just a fad or "uso".

Like it or not, house music is a direct descendant of 70s disco. It was basically born in Chicago in the 80s and has evolved to several genres today.

In the 80s to the early 90s, 12" remixes were the thing to have for DJs and evident in dance floors whether it's Stargazer, Louie Y's, Zig Zag, St. Michael's, Rumors, Faces, Mars, Equinox, Euphoria and other "discos" and "dance clubs" at the time. While the start of house music began with remixing popular songs, the mid 80s saw house developing into its own genre and the late 80s to early 90s saw house music stand out on its own.

Several house sub-genres came out in the 80s such as acid house, ghetto house, electronica and "techno" and in the 90s, progressive house and chill out/ambient came out. At the start of the 21st century, new sub-genres were evolved, namely beach house and "bar groove"

Chicago, Detroit, New York, London and Ibiza were very important places for house music. These four spots greatly contributed and developed what house music is today.

House music has been there for over 20 years. Not many Pinoys know this. But if Pinoys were dancing in the 80s and 90s at the clubs, they just didn't know it was house music they were dancing to. They just called it "disco". And house music will remain and evolve because people will always go out to the club and dance.

Local DJs just have this nasty habit of hiding/not divulging titles of their music so that they "retain" exclusivity. That's a nasty practice. If a local DJ really wants exclusivity of a track, I suggest make his own music or sampled music, produce it and make CDs out of it, just like Tiesto, Kaskade and a whole lot of DJs around the world. In this day and age of the Internet, the imagined 'exclusivity' is no longer attainable. Knowledgeable DJs know where to get their stuff and know what will "click" on the dance floor, and when to stop playing a certain track due to age or overplayed or simply does not get the crowd jumping or climbing up ledges.

"A DJ is a cynic of all music but first, he is here to make you dance." - Bob Sinclar

As for me, as a former DJ and as a listener, even if I don't dance, I have always liked house music. It makes me tap my feet to the beat and lifts my spirits on any given day or night.

Until a record company dares to invest on what is unknown territory, Pinoy electronica will remain very underground.

...which is just fine with me. Pinoy electronica is much cool underground. :cool:

Yo Hitman, I just want to remind those wannabees not to k*ll the scene.

What I am trying to ask was, some people might view house music as a fad or trend, and i consider house music not a fad too,but not all house music lovers out there are hardcore. Believe it or not, grunge genre died but there are still underground grunge band in seattle.

The best way to keep it real , is to educate people regarding house music, and I salute you for that HITMAN.

Anyhows, this December 8, I will be at UNDERGROUNDLOGIC's party,

I am inviting any dj's out there to jam with me, pm me aight.

I suggest you do some backreading, bro. I think there has been some posts regarding this.

But one quick answer: yes, but picture this: techno music is chocolate while trance and house is M&M/Mars and Hersheys. Get it??? :cool:
