El calendario anual de los grandes festivales de house y techno del mundo —Time Warp, DGTL, Movement, Sónar, Awakenings, Glitch, CRSSD, ADE y los cierres de Ibiza—, ordenados por temporada, con fechas, el sonido y un enlace a una guía de planificación completa de cada uno. Lo esencial primero: cuál elegir, cuándo es la temporada y cómo compran las entradas los visitantes extranjeros.
A field guide to the house labels worth following — Defected and Glitterbox for soulful and disco-house, Toolroom and Hot Creations for tech house, Anjunadeep for melodic, plus the Chicago and New York originators. What each one sounds like and where to start.
Melodic house & techno is about emotion and atmosphere (Afterlife, Anjunadeep, Tale of Us); progressive house is about the long, evolving build (Sasha, John Digweed, Hernán Cattáneo). Here's how the two overlap and how to tell them apart — BPM, mood and who to listen to.
Where house and underground dance music actually live in NYC — Nowadays, Good Room, Public Records, Elsewhere and the warehouses of outer Brooklyn and Queens — with the door, 21+ rules, tickets and getting home on the 24-hour subway.
Where house actually plays in London — fabric, Phonox, FOLD, Ministry of Sound, XOYO, Drumsheds and Studio 338 — with the door, advance tickets, 21+/18+, contactless payment and how to get home after the night buses.
Qué club de Ibiza en qué noche —DC10, Hï, Pacha, Amnesia, Ushuaïa y más— para house y tech house de verdad. Temporada y fechas de las fiestas de apertura, cómo compran las entradas los extranjeros, pulseras sin efectivo, vestimenta y cómo volver.
Olvídate de las trampas para turistas de EDM. Aquí es donde Ámsterdam pincha house y techno de verdad —Shelter, Garage Noord, RADION y más— con la puerta, las entradas, la vestimenta y el pago resueltos, además de cómo todo alcanza su pico durante el ADE en octubre.
Dónde suena house de verdad en Berlín —Panorama Bar y más allá— y las reglas reales de la puerta: cómo vestir, cómo comportarse y qué noches son de house, no solo de techno.
Two cities, two sounds, born almost together in the early 1980s. Chicago house is soulful and disco-rooted; Detroit techno is futuristic and machine-driven. The people, the places and the philosophy that set them apart — and how they fed each other.
Afro house is house music built on African rhythm — hand percussion, hypnotic polyrhythms and soulful, spiritual grooves around 118–125 BPM. Where it came from, how to recognise it, and the artists (Black Coffee, Keinemusik, Caiiro) to start with.
Tokyo has a world-class, welcoming house and techno scene hiding in plain sight. The clubs that matter — WOMB, Vent, Circus — plus the rules visitors get wrong: ID, the cover charge, smoking, last trains and when the night really starts.
House music began in 1980s Chicago — at The Warehouse, with Frankie Knuckles, drum machines and the ashes of disco. A clear origin story, the machines that shaped the sound, and how it conquered the world.
Deep house is warm, soulful and chord-driven; tech house is stripped-back, percussive and built for peak time. A clear, side-by-side breakdown with BPM, mood and reference artists.
