Garage house (originally known as "garage";[1] local terms include "New York house"[2] and New Jersey sound) is a dance music style[3] that was developed alongside Chicago house music.[4] The genre was popular in the 1980s in the United States and the 1990s in the United Kingdom, where it developed into UK garage and speed garage.[5]
Characteristics
In comparison to other forms of house music, garage includes more gospel-influenced piano riffs and female vocals.[5] It has a more soulful R&B-derived sound than Chicago house.[3]
History
Garage house was developed in the Paradise Garage nightclub in New York City and Club Zanzibar in Newark, New Jersey, United States, during the early-to-mid 1980s. There was much overlap between it and early house music, making it difficult to tell the two apart.[6] It predates the development of Chicago house,[7] and according to All Music, is relatively closer to disco than other dance styles.[3] As Chicago house gained international popularity, New York's garage music scene was distinguished from the "house" umbrella.[3]
Dance music of the 1980s made use of electronic instruments such as synthesizers, sequencers and drum machines. These instruments are an essential part of garage music.[8] The direction of garage music was primarily influenced by the New York City discothèque Paradise Garage where the influential DJ Larry Levan,[9] known for his musical versatility and innovation, played records.
According to Blues & Soul, contemporary garage music started with Boyd Jarvis and Levan's The Peech Boys.[10] Jarvis, using the Visual moniker, was behind 1983 recordings "Somehow, Someway" (Prelude Records – PRL D 650)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". and "The Music Got Me" (Prelude Records – PRL D 650)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters"., the latter especially influential,[10] which later was sampled by mainstream house music record producers Robert Clivillés and David Cole of C+C Music Factory.[11][12]
The popularity of the genre in the UK gave birth to a derivative genre called UK garage.[5]
