This is, apparently, progressive house – whatever classification is, this is the sort of thing I find ideal for background listening when I’m WFH. This and pretty much anything on the Anjunadeep label.
And I’ve got Franky Wah’s ‘This Is Shen’ playlist queued up for afterwards – progressive trance? rather than house of any sort perhaps? Not really just one music genre.
Not a new one to many I know but to add to the list? The mastery of this track, the flow and the layers.. subtle but engrossing. Techno genius.
Adele.. I tried. I don’t know what it is about her voice or pitch but I can’t listen to her for more than a moment, no house mix can change that it seems. Needs more vocal distortion : )
On Underground Resistance, this is a great conversation. Mad Mike talks about techno as an art form, credibility and the roots of Detroit Techno with the founders of the Tresor club. Long but worth settling into with a dram maybe. I’ve watched it again in parts a few times, Mad Mike is an inspiring guy to listen to.

+1 for prog house and working. Anjunadeep put out a lot of great music. Worth looking up Jorge Monti’s Changes series, Hixy and Kalo’s Sun and Earth, Basil O’Glue’s Momentum and Gai Barone’s Patterns series on Soundcloud. There’s loads more, these guys do keep it on a level and don’t stray into EDM and broken car alarm samples.
Rave era House eh. Was not unusual for artists in the 90’s to put out House and Hardcore/Breakbeat versions of tracks as well as vocal/radio edits and instrumental versions of the same track.
Congress covered all the bases with this:
That geezer from Faithless
Still sounds fresh and yes I prefer this version to the more well known vocal edit.

Thanks @jameso, I’ve been working my way through the Hicky and Kalo’s Sun & Earth stuff – those were new to me, great for WFH. Yet to try the others.
Again, is this house music? Not sure, but Marsh’s album released last week has some great stuff on it regardless of classification:
Been watching n listening too this with great ‘njoi’ ment ..one of my all time favs has got too be ‘wht have you done’ by One Tribe featuring Gem…what a tune , vaguely remember nodding my head every which way in the the shadows somewhere in south London,sure it was in Battersea could of been called zatopeks.. anyhow some great tunes up there keep em coming folks ..

I’d suggest listening to Hot Since 82 if this is your kind of thing. Don’t know how to embed videos, sorry, but here’s a link.
Still keep finding old tracks I used to listen to, mostly rave stuff, wasn’t so much a house fan after rave music. Found this, not sure I remember it, probably heard it, bit cheesy for me, but quite like it… housey-ish I think.
Even better when Floor Federation ‘Music For The Masses’ drops into it. One of the all-time great Sasha mixes, recreated here https://soundcloud.com/nic-hathway/sasha-2016 – 2 Bad Mice from ~20 mins in, the mix at ~20:50 in. A real goosebumper.
And “Tell Me Why” – I’d forgotten about that one, a top Club Kinetic tune
Some great tunes on here. Talking of Gat Decor “Passion”. I’ve got an original 12″ of it from Flying Records in Italy. Doesn’t get played very often as it’s probably my most treasured bit of vinyl.
Just watched this on youtube , I must admit I’d never heard of the club or the promoter. What a soundtrack in this Joey Beltram , Capricorn and Drum club at the end. First class.
