U Found Out
"U Found Out" is a song by British girl duo the Handbaggers. Released in 1996 by Tidy Trax as a single, it features a sample from The Jets' 1985 song " Crush on You", and was produced by Tidy Boys. It was also the first release by the label, peaking at number 55 on the UK Singles Chart and number eight on the UK Dance Singles Chart. A music video was also produced to promote the single. Critical reception Richard Smith from ''Melody Maker'' wrote, "This is that handbag track that samples Depeche Mode's ' Just Can't Get Enough'. It actually works really well. Whenever it comes on in a club, everyone goes "What the..." but then they all start smiling at each other. Which is nice." A reviewer from ''Music Week'' gave the song three out of five, noting that the DM riff is adapted for a handbag house track "which has been doing the business in the clubs." In his weekly dance column, James Hamilton James Hamilton may refer to: Dukes *James Hamilton, 1st Duke of Hamilton (1606–1649 ...

Hard House
UK hard house or simply hard house is a style of electronic dance music that emerged in the early 1990s and is synonymous with its association to the Trade club and the associated DJs there that created the style. It often features a speedy tempo (around 150 BPM but hard house ranges from around 135 BPM to around 165 BPM), offbeat bass stabs, hoovers and horns. It usually contains a break in the middle of the track where no drums are present. UK hard house often uses a long and sharp string note to create suspense. Most of the time, the drops are introduced by a drum roll. Origins Hard house has its immediate roots primarily in Belgian and German techno, American disco-sample based house music, handbag house and early trance. UK producer and label owner John Truelove was quoted as saying of hard house's origins: "I would say that tunes such as XVX's "Tremorra Del Terra" and Interactive's "Amok" (essentially the same tune) were absolutely defining moments.
