Review by frank.schwarz Oct 30, 2006 (edited over 5 years ago)

In 1991, the german DJ icon Sven Väth used "The house of god" for an own, short jingle in the legendary HR 3 Clubnight radio series. He imitated the preacher's voice of the track with his striking voice by using the german words "...die Hausaufgaben". This sounds quite similar to the english pronunciation of "The house of god" and it simply means "...to do your homework"! In spite of the fact, that this tune is at any rate a milestone in the history of techno, I paradoxially have to think of this sappy joke first, when I listen to it.:)

It has somehow been able to transform itself into timeless classic. Now going on 16 years, D.H.S. still sounds good coming out of a stack of speakers. The one thing I notice more then anything else is that anytime there is a dancefloor full of people and you drop this, the crowd always embraces it. I don't care if you are in the trediest spot in Ibiza with a handbag crowd, drop D.H.S. the crowd will cheer it on. No rhyme or reason why, it's just a good track and a good record. Always has been.

Rated 5/5

Review by V-Agent Feb 03, 2003

A very early UK rave classic!
Hard (for it's time), dark and very bent with a more belgian sound.
On the second record you will find some old electro beat techno.
All in all a milestone release for the Uk scene which was caught in a hardcore breakbeat loop in 1990.
"House of God" was huge in Belgium and this record was re-issued on R&S.
Has one of the ugliest picture sleeves in Techno history of a badly hand-drawn 'hangman' stick figure.
