Minimal House

Minimal House

Rooted in stripped-down synths and drum machines, house music has minimalism encoded in its DNA. In the late ’90s and early 2000s, adventurous producers leaned into that less-is-more aesthetic, yielding a pared-back style that dominated underground clubs and after-parties for a decade. As other subgenres have risen and fallen, minimal house has kept burbling along, folding deep-house warmth and experimental sound design into enveloping atmospheres, rippling grooves, and gently psychedelic moods—vibes for days, in other words.
