Other Origins of House Music I’ve also heard that around the time The Warehouse was more mainstream, record shops got really popular.
The owner of a big club in Chicago called “ The Warehouse” found this new music and started playing it there. Shortly after, they started selling their music in record shops in New York. Two DJs from New York City, Larry Levan and Frankie Knuckles, started to mix Disco with other musical elements – like breaks, afro beats and electronic music. In the late 70’s, the underground heads were starting to get tired of the formulaic cheesiness of Disco music. I’m sure there are many other stories of “firsts” that have yet to be as widely circulated. Similar sounds existed elsewhere before, but intentional branding of it, like “THIS is House music” with a DJ as the artist/producer, first happened in the Chicago community. The first House record came from Jessie Saunders in 1984 titled “On & On”, co-written by Vince Lawrence. These aren’t our experiences, and we are not married to any one narrative these are the ones that were shared with us. It’s important to keep in mind that “dance history” is essentially a collection of people’s life stories. There are a few different interpretations of how House music and dance started.

However, out of the many there were few instrumental in the introduction of house dance culture across the globe. In the early progressions of the dance, there were hundreds of phenomenal dancers that were key in its progression in this social dance scene. There is an emphasis on the subtle rhythms and riffs of the music, and the footwork follows them closely. House dance is often improvised and emphasizes fast and complex foot-oriented steps combined with fluid movements in the torso, as well as floor work. (1985), "Jack'n the House" (1985) by Farley "Jackmaster" Funk (1985), " Jack Your Body" by Steve "Silk" Hurley (1986), or "Jack to the Sound of the Underground" by Fast Eddie (1988). It has found its way onto numerous record titles like the Jack Trax EP by Chip E.
The element of "jacking", or the "jack", – an ecstatic, sex-driven rippling movement of the torso – is the most famous dance move associated with early house music. The main elements of House dance include " jacking", " footwork", and "lofting".
