Rating the shorthand? "Filter house" has been common parlance describing French electronica for what, 12-15 years? This could mix into something like Missil's "Glitch". And a well-recorded house record by relative unknowns can now be made at a fraction of the cost of a well-recorded, say, bluegrass record.
