    On a Greek holiday (Paros) we found the local dance music radio station 'Venus' radio, broadcasting from Mykonos. It was great as we didn't have a phoen cable and the car was very basic. Winner – house music all week.

    After a day of it, I noticed that all the tracks had that afro-house / amapiano feeling – but the very white version of that sound, like Keinemusik. I am a big fan lof house and techno, DJ'd for years and have a reasonably scholarly appreciation of most dance music.

    Stuff like this:

    Anyway, before I could realize what I was saying, i turned to my wife and said – "is it me or does all this music sound the same?" and we both looked at each other and i was like "NOOOOOOO!!! It happened!"

    The answer is yes it did all sound the same, and by that I mean broadly, average.

    • Modern Greek house music is as generic as most other house music. I love the traditional Greek music though.CyBrainX
    • There's a global trend though of this sound (like the one on the left) and its so pervasive but i also don't know if thats what the younger crowd like nowadays!DaveO
    • Long live the magic of the 90s and early 00s and it's colourful spectrum of sounds and music subcultures

    • IMO ultra clean house style reflects the way young people want to party now, dressed expensive, fancy drinks, clean environment like a nice hotel rooftop patioprophetone
    • It's safe and polished, it looks great on Instagram... back in day no one cared about all that, just amazing choons, friends, sweaty, rough environmentsprophetone
