German House Music: The New Sound of the Scene

Looking for something new in the world of German house music? Check out our latest blog post, which explores the exciting new sound of the scene!

The Origins of German House Music

In the early 1990s, a new style of house music was emerging from the clubs of Germany. This new sound was a fusion of American house and techno with the European electronic dance music styles of the time. This new style of house music came to be known as German house music.

The early days of German house music

The origins of German house music can be traced back to the early days of electronic music production in West Germany. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, West German producers and DJs began experimenting with American disco and funk records, combining them with the Kraftwerk-inspired sound of European synth-pop. This new style of dance music quickly caught on with clubgoers in Germany, and by the mid-1980s, a new generation of German producers were making their mark on the international dance music scene.

In the early 1990s, German house music experienced a surge in popularity, thanks in part to the success of several key artists who broke through to the mainstream. The most successful of these was likely Robert Miles, whose 1995 track “Children” became an international hit. Other notable German house music producers from this era include ATB, Blank & Jones, and WestBam.

Today, German house music is as popular as ever, with a new generation of producers keeping the sound fresh and innovative. If you’re looking for some great new German house tunes to check out, be sure to check out our list of 10 essential tracks from 2018.

The rise of Berlin as a house music capital

In the early 1990s, following the reunification of Germany, Berlin became a hotbed for underground club culture. A new generation of clubbers and music fans were drawn to the city’s open-minded atmosphere and thriving nightlife scene.

This new wave of clubbers brought with them a love for house music, a genre that was starting to gain popularity in the US and UK. Berlin’s clubs quickly latched onto this new sound, and it wasn’t long before the city became known as a mecca for house music lovers from all over the world.

Today, Berlin is still one of the most important centres for house music, with a huge range of clubs and events catering to all tastes. The city’s unique history and open-minded attitude mean that it will likely remain at the forefront of electronic music culture for many years to come.

The New Sound of German House Music

German house music has been making a comeback in recent years, and it’s now becoming the new sound of the scene. The old-school style of German house music was characterized by its deep, dark, and hypnotic sound. Today’s German house music is a bit lighter and more upbeat, but it still has that signature deep and hypnotic sound.

In recent years, a new sound has emerged from the German house music scene. Producers like Shall Ocin, Taaja, and Mono Side have been fusing elements of deep house, techno, and R&B to create a unique and soulful sound that is quickly gaining popularity both at home and abroad.

While the new wave of German house music is still very much in its infancy, it has already begun to make an impact on the global electronic music scene. In 2017, Shall Ocin’s track “Lonely Nights” was selected as one of Beatport’s “Tracks of the Year”, while Taaja’s “No More” was featured on BBC Radio 1’s coveted “Essential Mix” series.

With its distinct style and growing international appeal, the new sound of German house music is one to keep an eye on in the coming years.

The new generation of German house music producers

The new generation of German house music producers is having a moment. A fresh, more melodic and song-based approach is winning converts, with artists such as Purple Disco Machine, Claptone and Solee enjoying international recognition and club hits. Labels such as Exploited Ghetto, Gomma and Bar25 Music are at the forefront of the new sound.

German house music has always been defined by its capacity for reinvention. In the early 1990s, following the rise of techno in Detroit and Europe, a new wave of producers began to experiment with the genre, fusing it with different styles to create something new. The results were often surprising and unconventional – think Thomas Fehlmann’s ‘Glück’ or Drexciya’s ‘Neuro aquarium’.

The sound of German house music has evolved once again in recent years. A new generation of producers is making records that are melodic, soulful and deep, yet still retain a strong dancefloor sensibility. Tracks such as Purple Disco Machine’s ‘Body Funk’, Claptone’s ‘No Eyes’ featuring Jaw and Solee’s ‘Impressed’ are proof that German house music is very much alive and kicking in the 21st century.

The Future of German House Music

The new sound of German house music is a fresh take on a classic genre. With its heavy bass and hypnotic melodies, German house music is perfect for both clubs and festivals. And with its popularity on the rise, there’s no doubt that German house music is here to stay.
