tl:dr stop being a grumpy old man and let the kids have their genres.
I said I like all that music.
But yeah, this is why I get for posting in forums. Thanks for the "friendly" reminder.
Whether you like it or not, my point was more about the fact that you think they are all the same thing.
Nah, I said they are too close to each other, not that they are the same.
What I don't really like is being called stuff (old, grumpy and ignorant all at once in this case). Just saying. Not gonna elaborate on this anymore or I will be feeding exactly what I should steer clear off.
wtf is witchhouse?
house music made by witchcraft? So I can FINALLY make music using magic?
This is the best joke I could think about.

YAY genre conversations!!!
Regardless of similarities to present or past genres there are people out there labelling their stuff as these things and it does sit within a certain aesthetic... also almost all of them started as a joke that spiralled out of control with internet kids taking it too seriously... the thread below is where witch house started going wrong hahahaha

hahaha lolz. bitches domicile? have you heard the levar burton book on tape of his auto bio? priceless
really the only listenable witch house stuff is zombelle, police academy 5, and salem and even that stuff is sorta borderline
actually i'm pretty sure (from an article in the chicago alt-paper) that zombelle is seapunk. the whole article was about her and someone else.
i dont really put them under a genre heading all these people, but for ease on the interweb stuff gets all labelled under this witch house moniker. so i state i like witch house, but i dont in the respect of all the people with just symbols for names and an 'evil' aesthetic but utter shite music. when i say i like it im more thinking of stuff like holy other, burial hex, salem........alot of the stuff thats really over done with the occult shit is more than likely made and listened to by a 15 year old. i think there is not much in common between this and the stuff on tri-angle and that aside from the kind of spooky aesthetic, vague artwork so it all got lumped together. balam acab and holy other isnt really dark, or trying to be 'eviiiiil' for the sake of being 'eviiiil', id just call that stuff ambient electronica with a goth tinge haha.i mean all that shit with the alastair crowley artworks and up side down crosses and stuff is 90% percent shit. not all of it, but most.
Witchhouse? That's so 2008.
Now it's all about scuff.
Oh god can we not please. YO DAWG WE HERD U LIEK GHETTO TEK SO WE SPEEDED IT UP AND CALLED IT FOOTWORK THEN WE SLOWED IT BACK DOWN TO NORMAL AND CALLED IT SCUFF
that being said I love me some footwork / juke
