Never mind, I figured it out.

Looking for a track where a woman sings "This is house music"
Hi all. I am looking for a track which I liked very much but unfortunately I can't find the name of it in Google. I would be very happy if somebody would recognize the song and artist with the following criteria:


 * The CD on which I heard the song was, as far as I remember, a techno or trance collection.
 * In the particular song, a very strong woman voice sings (or shouts) several times "This is house music!" I liked her voice very much. It's a very strong and clear voice speaking to a large audience, at least I imagine so :)
 * I'm not sure whether it was another song on the same CD or whether it was in the same song but I remember also somehow "insomnia"... But I might be wrong in this case.

Hoping that somebody would help me... Thanks in advance :) --Tilmanb (talk) 11:46, 5 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Is this it?  The leftorium  13:03, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
 * No :( In this song, there is even no strong woman voice singing "this is house music". In the song I am looking for, the voice is really in the foreground. Not all the time of course but a few times during the song or so... --Tilmanb (talk) 05:36, 6 July 2009 (UTC)


 * When you say 'insomnia' do you mean this song - if so that might narrow it down a bit. Also if you know is it an old (eg 80's or 90's song)83.100.250.79 (talk) 19:09, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Hmm, I might have been thinking of that song but no, that was not the song I was looking for. But this song reminds me that "insomnia" was NOT mentioned in the song I am looking for :) So, I AM looking for a song where a woman sings "this is house music"! Unfortunately I don't know from which year the song is (but my guess is 90s or 00s). --Tilmanb (talk) 07:46, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Follow up. Can't anybody remember any song where a woman is singing "this is house music"? I really really hope that somebody would find it for me... --Tilmanb (talk) 18:03, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Music intervals
Bear with me, I'm trying to grasp the ideas of music theory to strengthen my ability of writing chord progressions (prior to this I just messed around). I was looking at a certain group of chords shown below, and I think I've named the intervals right but could someone check them over?

D  A#5       Bm     C    F#dim

1  #5/b6     6      7    #3/b-4

Thanks!

Assuming this is in the key of D-major; D-F# is a major 3rd, not a raised major 3rd. I would just notate it as 3 and not #3. Remember that in a major key, the 3-4 interval is the half step; while in the minor key it's the 2-3 interval. If this is supposed to be D-major key then the D-F# interval is just a third. Otherwise the rest of these look pretty good. It's gonna sound weird as heck, but it looks like you've labeled them right. What's wrong with I-IV-V-vi anyways? --Jayron32. talk . contribs 00:22, 6 July 2009 (UTC)


 * This depends on the key of the progression. If indeed it is D major (though this progression hardly suggests such a key) the root of the C chord would be labeled a minor seventh in traditional music theory, the A# would be an augmented fifth (+5), the B would be a major sixth (M6), F# would be a major third (M3), and D would be a perfect unison (P1). Using roman numerals, the progression would be labeled I-#V-vi-bVII-°iii. Someoneinmyheadbutit&#39;snotme (talk) 03:15, 6 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, he indicated that D was the root (using the number 1) which would indicate some sort of key of D. To be honest, it is a weird progression.  Even trying the same chords in other keys, I don't come up with anything more standard... --Jayron32. talk . contribs  04:41, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Gah, just wrote a huge response and the form failed, so now I have to try and remember everything again. Seems I made some mistakes above, I must have overly simplified it in my head because that certainly is not the right progression. It's more complicated, like D, A#dim5, (A#dim), Bm7, Am7, D7sus, G, Dmaj7sus, G, Gmaj. What would I call the intervals in this case? Seems to complicated to merely be in the key of Dmaj.

 * This depends on what is meant by "intervals." Do you mean intervals of the roots of each chord relative to D or the harmonic function of each within the key or progression? Someoneinmyheadbutit&#39;snotme (talk) 01:41, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
