Cupe Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Fidget house is a style of house music that is defined by snatched vocal snippets, pitch-bent dirty basslines and rave-style synth stabs over glitchy 4/4 beats.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fidget_house Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeatLeSS Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 I always figured fidget was a cross between electro/dub.Had a really paced/chopped wobble with a constant kick. LOVE IT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LabRat Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 im playing fidget more now. the reception i got when i played it was awesome! people are aware this is "electro" but they're unaware of the glitchy sounds. there was that sense of excitement from the crowd which was really sick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

street Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 F U C K Y E S !ps: got a few fidget mixes on my mixcloud. have a listen I actually searched them yesterday and gave them a few listens and really like em. Milk (Gigi Barocco Remix), The Whole Sh-Bang (Tom Stephan New Kick Remix), Black Betty (Ph Electro Remix) and Temptation [Gigi Barocco Remix] are all such sick songs.This guy also has a style similar to Porter and is the main style I'm looking for more of. Epic, trance-influenced builds, massive electro drops and a super sharp sense of melody. Fucking love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
