<br />
After Eric Prydz massive hit Call on me at 2003, crowd expected to have more non-french producers to bump into success, but it took time.<br />
<br />
There were few years quiet living in the world of French House (sure in 2005 Daft Punk released their album Human After All, but I'm not gonna talk anymore about Daft Punk on this post (: )<br />
Until at 2005.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/7XtLxzxQt3U?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>Bob Sinclar released two songs that taked separation from the "traditional" French House.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/v0NSeysrDYw?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>French House scene was growing and taking different forms. There were still classic filtered loops, but with sinclar's opening there started to grow different styles, for example Laurent Wolf changed his style of making music quite dramaticly.<br />
<br />

Still at 2006 a swedish duo Steve Angello and Axwell released song by the name of supermode, which is pure and classic French House.<br />
<br />

<br />
Bob Sinclars new more "pop"kind of music had lots of critisizm about selling the music genre to MTV and NRJ. As a counterreaction many producers decided to make more real and original style of french house.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/DOTXZKLrPzw?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><br />
In 2007 a wild card appeared. Very Daft Punkish way. Justice, a french duo including <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"><b>Gaspard Augé and </b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"><b>Xavier de Rosnay. </b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: small; line-height: normal;">They taked fragments from many producers and music styles combining them into new kind of French House.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"><br />

</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">Its interesting to see where French House will evolve from here. I personally think it will stay on 3 groups:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">Classic style.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">More popular style.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"><br />

<br />
As I have said earlier, French House is THE music for me. There is something almost magical and hypnotizing about french house. It is just plainly loop, kick and vocoder vocals that can continue hours and hours.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/mtwrpywnRso?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">The roots of French House are in the classic Disco and Chicago House. Just take the essential of Chigaco house 4/4 kick and snare, simple and addictive bass lines and mix it with loops from classic Disco song with lots of Groove. Finish it with Vocoder and voila, you got French House.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;"><br />
</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/z014I7FvDCo?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 18px;">This is what started the French House. A little project from two french student </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">Guy-Manuel de Homem Christo and Thomas Bangalter, the Daft Punk. (Yes I know they released New wave single before this song, but in my books it wasn't French House yeat, my blog, my rules) Story goes that they were tired of the modern dance music. There werent' any groove on it. So they created music that they would prefer to hear in clubs.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/4YCoSF-voHY?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">In 1998 Thomas Bangalter, Alan Braxe and DJ falcon went in Bangalter home studio. when they came out they released song called music sounds better with you as Stardust. It was huge hit, that made French House big enough to be noticed outside of electronic music scene.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">Year earlier Alan Braxe released his single Vertigo on Bangalters Label Roulé. (One of my very very favourite songs).</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">2000 and one. Daft Punk released their second album, Discovery.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/FGBhQbmPwH8?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">This was the album that made French House so popular that even MTV showed Daft Punks videos at primetime. (remember kids that this was before Jersey Shore etc. The time that MTV was actually a MUSIC TELEVISION)</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">Also the other half of Daft Punk, had personal projects. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 19px;">Guy-Manuel de Homem Christo teamed up in late 90´s and early 00´s, with Eric Chedeville for Le Knight Club (which is in my opinoin way too underappreciated). They released several singles, without "gaining" notice of big audience.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 19px;"><br />

And note to all, this doesn't include dubstep, if you wanna check some good finnish dubstep go and seem rico tubbs, 501, muffler etc.<br />
<br />
For most people the term Finnish artist brings a list of metal bands into their mind. Nightwish, HIM,, Children of Bodom etc. But especially here in Helsinki there is massive electronic scene.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/PSYxT9GM0fQ?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>For time to time some of it bulbs to awareness of big public. First time in 1999 when Darude released his hit single Sandstorm. As you can remember it was a international hit.<br />
About same time with Darude, the Bomfunk MC's released few hits, which were succesful in Europe, but never get same hit status as Darude. Both had same producer, Jaakko Salovaara aka JS16, the godfather of finnish scene.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/RpG5YuyNrqM?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>And ofcourse Jori Hulkkonen aka Zyntherius, and his biggest hit: Sunglasses at nigth with canadian DJ Tiga.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/QEgGDJV6zIM?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>In my opinion this was the end of first Finnish electronic music wave. After sunglasses at night, the finnish scene slipped away from the awareness of big crowd. In my opinion it was strange that from the land of snow and ice came this kind of music. The music was and is usually a very energetic and in my opinion very exuberant, with a lots of summer vibes. You could say that it birthed from a rebellion against the traditional finnish music, which is very dark, strong and sad. Melancholic.<br />
<br />
<br />
The second wave was lot smaller than the first wave. You could say that there isn't a second wave just some individual songs in period of time from 2004-2008. Anyways the reason why I separate these songs from first wave, is their new vibe. Melancholy. I think the finnish producers finally found peace with traditional melancholy and draw influence from it into their own music. The biggest hits were from Dallas Superstars (with Jarkko Salovaara) and Super 8 and Tab.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/34X3byLNT-g?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>Helsinki Schorchin is one of my favourite trance songs. Tiesto even included it in his list of best trance songs of year.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/BlABK0K-i6Y?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>Ofcourse the first wave didn't just disappear, there were several releases with names like Bomfunk Mc's and Darude after 2003. Beats and Styles group also combined elements from joy of first wave and melancholy of second wave.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/AhntpEmLwxo?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>In 2009 started the third wave of finnish electronic music. The Helsinki wave. After 2009 a lot of new promising producer's have released their contribution to our ears. And what connects these new artists? They all come from Helsinki.<br />
Villa Nah<br />

Helsinki 78-82. These guys are genius. This was my choice for best song of 2010. One senior game makers of Gran Turismo 5 was in vacation in Helsinki. He by chance heard Helsinki 78-82 song Cruising in a bar and he fell love in first listening. He loved song so much that he sent it to the rest of Gran turismo 5 makers. After they had heard it they included it in their game.<br />

<br />
I personally think the term Dubstep is too generalising. You cant just say for instance I think House is cancer or I love House. There Are bziljon sub genres in music style called House. For example there is Tech-House, Electro House and ofcourse awesome tier: Deep House and God tier: French House ( Long live Alan Braxe and Thomas Bangaltier, the gods among man).<br />
<br />
On my opinion in genre Dubstep there is 4 main subgenres. The mainstream Clubstep (you know what I talk about guys and gals) Chase & status and Nero type of dubstep sound (Yes I know they are DnB artist but they have done alot of dubstep lately).<br />
Wobblestep, Cookie Monsta and Cokie style (There cant be enough wobble, THERE CAN NOT BE!!!!!!111). Hipsterstep (Jamie Blake, Magnetic Man, Jamie XX. God tier guys God tier) And last but not least one of my favourite genres Lovestep (501, Rusko)<br />
<br />
And ofcourse the 90% of dubstep artists who combine alot of elements and their every song is different from another (for example Noisia, Skrillex and Rico Tubbs)<br />
<br />
And for end you can enjoy one of my favourite dubstep artists 501 (they are insane live).<br />
