Ghetto house
Ghetto house is a type of house music from Chicago which started being recognised in its own right from around 1994 onwards. It features minimal 808 and 909 drum machine-driven tracks, and profane, raunchy, and sometimes extremely sexually explicit lyrics. Taking its influences from Chicago house and Miami bass, it is has usually
been made on very minimal equipment with little or no effectss. It usually features a "4-to-the-floor" kick drum (full sounding, but not too long or distorted) along with Roland 808 and 909 synthesised tom-tom sounds, minimal use of analogue synths, and short, slightly dirty sounding (both sonically and lyrically) vocal sampless, often repeated in various ways. Also common are 808 and 909 clap sounds, and full "rapped" verses and choruses. See also: Dance Mania
