DRAG/ WITCH HOUSE/ HAUNTED HOUSE - What is it?

Post by AbandonSilence » Wed Jun 02, 2010 2:49 am

Hi there,

Ive just (admittedly via Pitchfork) discovered 'drag'/'witch house'/'haunted house'. Does anyone have any further opinions or information about this genre?

I have only found artists like Creep, OoOOo and Balam Acab that create music in this style, if anyone knows any others I would love the heads up. From what Ive heard it reminds me of Burial and Joker, and with the BPMs it is incredibly similar to dubstep, but it appears to be striking off as its own genre.

I just started this post as I can't find any other threads on the genre.

Hope you can help,

AbandonSilence

Ive compiled a mix from the tracks I have been able to find, its here...http://soundcloud.com/abandonsilence/drag-mix-june-2010

It's pretty much a bunch of hipster-y people copying this:

I'm sure something good will come out of this genre, but I haven't heard anything yet.
