This picture reminds me of Schnipper, he knows a thing or two about house records, so does Cosmo Baker, they should report to this thread.

Girl, I see you

Everybody, shake your body

Come on, come on and stick with me
Ill keep things the way they should be
Keep your house until you sweat

House is food and you need it
If I feed it, you should eat it
Say, house your body, house your body (2x)
You know, mike g wont steer you wrong
House music all night long
(say what? ) house music all night long (2x)

As for the most recent ish, this is what I got. This is usually what I will play on the weekends. To each their own.
Anything on the Dirtybird label...well almost anything. Some of it can get to be too rave-like for me.
Especially Claude Von Stroke is the best bet.
FreeRange records are always nice as well. It can go from deep to funky.
-Chris Grant - Slow Your Roll (Odds and Ends)
-The Martin Brothers - Stoopit (Christian Martin Remix) (Dirtybird)
-Santiago & Bushido - What's Your Name EP (Robsoul)
-Inland Knights-Come With Me (Drop)

anything on naked music (i.e. lisa shaw)
quentin harris

house
its got the beat, thats all it needs
i guess he's also classified as 'garage'
I disagree. You mean to tell me the club music that guidos play in their jeep is that same as Body & Soul stuff. no. but i don't think todd edwards is the club music that guidos play in their jeeps.
i mean yeah you got megatrance clubs or whatever but house is still a big enough tent to represent the 'standard' for dance clubs pretty much across the world. it covers everything from roy davis jr. 'gabriel' to deep dish remixing stevie nicks to german minimal but its still 'house,' its still the same beat and its still the common denominator for clubland.
my impression (possibly warped by living in chicago but i get the impression that its this way in much of the rest of the world too) is that the default non-rap club-dance genre is house music to this day
the Respect is Burning mixes are nice... Besides the obvious A Night at the Playboy Mansion, especially Vol. 1 and the one DJ Deep did are worth checking out. Although I'm not really op un their new stuff, Cassius' debut album 1999 is a personal fav of mine... the Foxy Brown flip on it is
Etienne de Crecy's Tempovision is a must too.
French house was/is the shit

Actually it was Todd Edwards from New Jersey that really helped spawn Speed Garage with a few tracks he did at the right time. Armand did that shit after the Speed Garage scene was already growing. I guess he did it early enough for people to think he may have helped spawn it though. He did help give it some attention. Who cares though, Speed Garage is the worst crap ever.
My copy has cue burn. This got played alongside many an Ashley Beedle/Black Sciene Orchestra record.Another dude who deserves mention = Todd Edwards
His Full On comp is so neccessary
This is definitely before 1997.
Todd did some great choppy sample arrangements especially with his remixes, and never got much recognition did he?
Moodymann! So many of his tracks, but there are some that stick out like: JAN, Shades Of Jae, Tribute To The Soul We Lost, Forevernevermore, Black Mahogani, In Loving Memory and The Thief That Stole My Sad Days. Some of these 12"es can be a little hard to find though, but the albums on Peacefrog shouldn't be that hard to find.
Also Theo Parrish stuff like Summertime Is Here and Falling Up and Andr??s' self titled debut album.
