Houston House Music


W.E.R.X

House music in Houston emerged as part of a broader movement in the late 1980s and early 1990s, influenced heavily by the genre's origins in Chicago and the burgeoning electronic dance music scene worldwide. Houston, known for its diverse musical landscape, quickly embraced house music, with local DJs and producers infusing the genre with unique Southern flavors. The scene in Houston was characterized by a blend of soulful vocals, rhythmic beats, and deep basslines, often incorporating elements of funk, disco, and hip-hop, reflecting the city's rich cultural tapestry. Over time, Houston's house music community grew, contributing to the city's reputation as a significant hub for electronic dance music in the Southern United States.
