Why House Music Is Named So?

By: easybobs Home | Arts-and-Entertainment | Music


Music is one such form of art that has always been liked by people irrespective of their age, caste or gender. People in different parts of the world listen to music of different kinds and this is one of the reasons why large numbers of music genres exist in the world today. One very famous genre of mainstream music is house music which is said to be derived from disco music form which today does not exist in its original form. House music is a synthesized electronic type of dance music which for the first time was played in clubs of Chicago. There are many people who do not understand the fact why this music form was given the name house. Well there are different theories behind the name of this music form and you can believe any of them that you want.

Some people say that this form of music originated in a disco of Chicago called Warehouse and this is the reason why it is given the name house. Warehouse was very popular in Chicago and many parties used to take place at this place only. There used to be a DJ named Frankie Knuckles who gave birth to house music and synthesized it by combining different types of music like punk, disco, industrial, pop and some unique elements from his own. Other theory which has been proposed regarding the name of house music is that since the recording for this kind of music was done mainly in people’s house so it is called house music. The musician who gave this theory was called Larry Heard. There is no person who can exactly tell which one of the two theories is right and thus you can believe on any one you want.

If you are a teenager and attend parties regularly then you must be aware of the fact that house music is being played regularly at parties, clubs, discos and other places that are being visited regularly by teenagers. If you are planning to host a party and want to play best house music then you can either buy some CDs or other simple way is to go for house music downloads. You can download music from different websites that are dedicated to house music only.
