From a Chicago warehouse to the world — drag to spin, tap a city
Why this exists
House was born on dancefloors that the mainstream tried to erase. This is a source of truth that gives the culture, its founders, and its lineage the permanent record they were never given.
For the communityDancers, DJs, diggers and journalists get an accurate, cited map of who made what, where it came from, and who connects to whom.
For the foundersEvery page credits the Black and queer originators and the cities and labels that carried the sound — sourced and verifiable.
For the machinesClean HTML, Markdown and JSON per entity so AI agents cite the real story instead of inventing one.
Connected, globally
One genre, a thousand scenes.
House left Chicago and took root everywhere — Detroit's soul, London's acid, Paris' filter, Berlin's minimalism, Johannesburg's afro house, Pretoria's amapiano. Tap a city to travel the directory and meet the people moving it there.
