Deadmau5 is not so good. It's the same loops and melody with different notes.

More of a prog. and tribal house fan myself. Sasha & Digweed, Deep Dish, Gabriel & Dresden

i don't really care for house or techno.

i'm listening to Derrick May's "Strings of Life" right now, though.

I've noticed that as I get older, I view house and jazz more and more simmillarly.

True. Most of the "acid jazz" that I listen to sounds more like house than jazz.

Fantasy/Paradox was the place for house music on Saturday nights.

Odell's was it on Friday nights.

and I think anything else you had to travel north to NYC

One thing I loved about both was that you didnt have to go thru the pretense of 'dressing up' in slacks, dress shoes, shirt and tie just to meet some women...you could just go comfortably because guaranteed you was coming out at 4,5 or 6 am drenched.

You know, now that i think about it...my best friend met his wife there....HAHAHAH!

.......and our other friend met ONE of his babymommas there too...heh!
My bad, I'm just now seeing this.

I never went out to any house clubs while in MD/DC or Chicago.

I did, however, find one of my old URB magazines with a history of Chicago House. Many of the artists in the issue are artists that you and AKA_Monet mentioned, so I'll def be making an effort to check them out now.

Anyone else hear of/listen to the Verve Remixed Series? It takes older jazz/blues singers (Ella Fitzgerald, Nina Simone, etc) and remixes the songs with house and downtempo beats.

^^^ I tried trance a while ago, but could never get into it. I only remember liking one song, but this was back when mp3.com sent out free CDs. I haven't heard anything enjoyable since then.
