Future house is an electronic dance music genre that emerged in the 2010s, described as a fusion between deep house and EDM.
Oliver Heldens' international chart successes "Gecko (Overdrive)" and "Last All Night (Koala)" brought the genre to wider mainstream recognition in 2014, leading to minor feuds between him and Tchami on social media. Artists such as Don Diablo, Kerri Chandler, Martin Solveig and Mesto have since incorporated the sound into their work, leading some commentators to observe the commercialisation of the style.
Future house is a subgenre of house music. Songs within the genre are normally characterized by a muted melody with a metallic, elastic sounding drop and frequency modulated basslines.
