Future house

Future house is an electronic dance music genre that emerged in the mid 2010s. It is a fusion of deep house, UK garage, and other techniques of EDM.[1][2][3][4]

Etymology

The word was coined by French DJ Tchami. In an interview, he says that he tagged his tracks “Future House” on Soundcloud "as a defiant joke. It has never been about to launch a new genre. I guess people loved it and made it a new genre. That’s the beauty of internet. Future House basically means every tunes that push forward [the] House genre. Whatever it is. It’s open."[5]

The genre itself is credited as being popularized by Oliver Heldens[6].

Characteristics

Future house is a subgenre of house music. Songs within the genre are normally characterized by a muted melody with a metallic, elastic[7] sounding drop and frequency modulated basslines. The most common BPM is around 125, but it can vary around the 120-130 mark.[8]

Popularity

Heldens' international chart successes "Gecko (Overdrive)" and "Last All Night (Koala)" brought the genre to wider mainstream recognition in 2014, leading to minor feuds between him and Tchami on social media.[9] Artists such as Don Diablo, Mike Williams, Mesto, Brooks and Curbi have since incorporated the sound into their work, leading some commentators to observe the commercialisation of the style.[8]
