	Microhouse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Microhouse can be thought of as a bridge between the minimal techno and tech house genres - its click-and-cut aesthetic mixes well and compliments techno while the funkier house and dub influences give it a greater accessibility and more danceable sound.
		Percussion in microhouse is reminiscent of tech house drums, replacing typical house kick drums and hi-hats with small bits of noise.
		Sampling is integral to microhouse and is one of the main contrasts between it and minimal techno.

	village voice > music > by Michaelangelo Matos
		But unlike them, microhouse pares away not to diminish itself but to expand its scope and bear down on details—staticky clicks, voices inhaling just before they begin to sing, the decaying sizzle of a hi-hat—in order to blow them up widescreen size.
		Nevertheless, microhouse's sonic strategy, with voluptuous asceticism playing between gummed-up beats and up-top tics'n'timbres, form fits the confines of the smaller spaces that have become the sad face of NYC clubbing post-Giuliani.
		When microhousers play with house's diva ideal—see Luomo's 2000 album Vocalcity, or the glitchy parts of Björk's Vespertine—they tend to cut the voices up as much as the rest of the instruments.

	Micro House (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		And yet, as is the way with unconscious phantasy, the spectre of the enemy remains embedded in the solution: and in microhouse, the enemy is the bassline.
		It looms large behind the neurotic, finicky, asexual loathings of the rhythm, the shadow of the father, looming at the door, to catch the child engaged in sexual misbehaviour.
		Microhouse, which breaks house down its barest rythmic elements, may seem like a simple template but over the past few years a group of innovative, flexible producers have reconstructed them from the bottom up.

		Microhouse is different from minimal house as it involves 'micro-edits' - i.e.
		i think microhouse came about because wire magazine did a feature on a bunch of people who were doing this sort of stuff - jan jelinek etc. and they needed a name for it.
		It seems like the critic is trying to usurp the artist's role as creator, and rob her of her autonomy, by imposing a form.

		It is possible to sheath the frames of a microhouse with almost any recycled material (cardboard, for example), cover that with ordinary chicken wire, and then trowel on a mixture of light plaster.
		If your microhouse is intended for human habitation and you don't live in California, or even in California if you want to house someone younger than 60, you will find yourself in violation of the Universal Building Code, which includes rules pertaining to adequate heating, minimal space and sanitary facilities.
		So you hammer a microhouse into completion, insulate it, furnish it with a comfortable bed, a multifiush toilet, a small heater, lights, books, stereo, and TV You provide meals for your aunt in your home but on occasion she enjoys having her dinner in her microhouse with one of your children as a guest.

	crasch: Build a portable micro-house
		Economies aside, the greatest environmental advantage of a hand-built microhouse over conventional home construction is that a diesel bulldozer isn't needed to dig cellars and utility lines, to grade the land flat, and to make noise and belch smoke.
		You'll need a proposal to build a microhouse that can be taken apart, loaded on a truck, and taken with you when you move on.
		A microhouse is economical or fugal, but not cheap; it won't be a shack if you take the time to finish it off carefully.

	Sami Koivikko: Salmiakki: Pitchfork Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		One of the most striking and unexpected things about the first wave of microhouse artists is the number of different directions in which they've moved in such a short amount of time.
		Microhouse has become so healthy so quickly that it's spawned not only a variety of styles (from the glam of schaffel to digital disco to the neuroromantics of The Present Lover) but also a legion of artists who are doing everything but following blueprints such as Herbert's "Going Round" or Isolée's "Beau Mot Plage".
		Koivikko is eating the tail of tech-house, winding through its brief history and starting again with a more strict genre sound; DJ Koze's mix does the opposite-- casting such a wide mix that it risks not having an identity at all.

	i found a nomination for stupidest thing written so far in 2003 (please add your own!) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		It was the defining moment in the short-lived "microhouse" craze, which, in the simplest terms, translated to a sort of humble, almost twee dance music: beats untainted by crystalline production, boring arial-font layouts and you know...
		I think a tendency has developed for people to see microhouse as just being softer, quainter, or dreamier than house -- that is, to put more emphasis on the fact that it's often more subdued than build-and-release house than on the fact that it contains all those textural shifts and ruptures.
		I'd say the biggest factions of microhouse vocals are traditional dance music divas and guys operating in a Kraftwerk/Air vein of emasculated German cleanliness (which I like!).

	MRI
		If it's often said that the music of German duo MRI exemplifies the genre of MicroHouse (a reduced, glitchified form of House music), what's not observed is how the duo pull the rubric of said genre in so many different directions.
		It's what Australian dance critic Tim Finney identified as MicroHouse reduced to its bare essentials: a kind of scientific attention or scrutiny to miniaturised details, the little crinkles in sound fabric (or, as Stereolab recently put it, the 'fl ants in sound dust') that swim and flutter around MicroHouse's four-to-the-floor substructure.
		Rhythmogenesis pushed MRI to the forefront of MicroHouse (even if, in many cases, it was a recent perspective trick as I only really latched onto MRI just before their second album was released).

	philip sherburne: Belated platitudes part one
		Microhouse — the genre that sounds like a drum circle played with tinfoil, truck tires, and sawed-off lightning rods, while a robot sings scat with his jaw wired shut — kept up its anthill frug in 2003 with perspicacious pointillism from the usual suspects.
		Ada’s “Arriba Amoeba” was a tugboat hauling massive, !!!-styled basslines through microhouse’s whitecapped wake, and the rest of her colleagues on Areal did their best to chop the waters, churning overdriven drums like prop blades through seasick-making chord swells.
		At first, “Dexter” seemed like pure indulgence, an unusual shred of sentimentalism from the easygoing (capital E) glamour boy, but in light of other developments, Villalobos’ momentary rejection of microhouse’s austerity plan feels more significant, almost as if he were laying a primer coat for the thick, gloopy paint job yet to come.

		"Microhouse" was to become techno's sleeker, more stylish cousin, and JP stocked the store with its most intricate cuts.
		Seemingly inherent in microhouse and its minimalist philosophy is this self-motivating gene that imposes only one rule: Break them all.

	Delayed Climaxes (Seattle Weekly)
		In its big bang–like outward expansion, microhouse (that predominantly German strain of house music that privileges idiosyncratically intricate grooves, scintillating textures, and delicate atmospherics) faces a few methodological hurdles, chief among them being, um, where's the micro?
		As pointillist minimalism is gradually abandoned, and the points of distinction between microhouse and other styles (straight house, straight techno, straight pop) shrink to subtle nuances, will this become another empty term, conferred upon dance records simply by dint of being released on the "right" record label?
		The result was an elaborate simulacrum of house that chose endless labyrinths of unquenched desire over straightforward satisfaction, nerve-tickling foreplay rather than (and maybe better than) the final climax.

	* Dusted Reviews - Thomas Fehlmann *
		While Fehlmann is the elder statesman on the scene, his aesthetics are well suited for microhouse’s attention to detail, both for the dancefloor and the living room.
		With house’s beat and glitch’s attention to detail, microhouse is more a description of process than sound, aimed at constructing textures, layers, and space, but with the dancefloor in mind.
		Kompakt’s brand of microhouse is minimal and dub-influenced, and Fehlmann fits in perfectly.

	Thinner/Autoplate - Thinner Releases - THN057
		Oakland CA in particular is based off of my experiences of the west coast minimal-techno scene that influenced a vast majority of his earlier works.
		But most simply, the title Microcosmos fits perfectly in that the style of the album is that of the popular microhouse genre that is prevalent today.
		Although minimal in some instances, the album pre-dominantly tends to really fill in the tight sonic cracks through a use of ethereal, watery synth pads resting gently atop a garden of glitchy sounds.

	Jackson and His Computer Band - Smash \| Album Reviews \| PM Media Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Whereas other microhouse songs just feel like they're trying to (in my opinion) force a funny-sounding barrage of brief vocal samples down your throat, Jackson And His Computer Band make songs that have a definite texture to them.
		Of course, some of them miss the mark, but the majority of the album is enough to convince me that if used for good, not evil, microhouse can be a pretty fun niche genre.
		The album kicks off with the stupidly awesome "Utopia" (Tron, I'm telling you!), which carries a bit of the un-danceable beats of label-mate Aphex Twin as well as the sonic texturing of Boards of Canada (label-mates as well).

	Tobias Thomas: Smallville: Pitchfork Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Yet by turning down the bombast and thrust of house, producers have been able to explore the space between its rhythm and melody and revel in the push and pull of placing delicate, avant-glitch alongside oft-direct melodies and regimented beats.
		The result is that microhouse has been one of the more durable, inclusive sounds of the past few years.
		On Tobias Thomas' mix Smallville, he illuminates microhouse's gentle shading by artfully constructing a mix that goes from a whisper to, not a scream but certainly a clamor, without any neck snapping.
