That Acapulco night in London (at Plastic People) bills itself as, among other things, a "micro-house" night, doesn't it?
I expect that a more technical definition of micro house would be that it tends to rely heavily on rhythmic patterns with more than 16 steps in a bar; that it eschews standard 909 drums and instead opts for clipped percussive sounds whose length is measured in pico- rather than milliseconds; and that it is the bastard child of Maurizio and Dan Bell...
