Blog House is a genre of electronic dance music that emerged after (or just before) Justice's Waters of Nazareth EP in 2006, which provided the genre its distinctive sound. Utilizing non traditional house drum beats, heavy electronic synth bass lines and incredibly dirty and distorted samples, "Blog House" is almost a complete opposite of the typical and stylistically clean French filter disco house that made Paris famous in 1996. This new sound culminating out of Europe has bubbled out of the underground with the help of predominant taste maker mp3 blogs, including Fluokids, Palms Out Sounds, Discobelle, and Big Stereo who compete with each other to post exclusive tracks and remixes.

This term was first coined in February 2007 by Baghdaddy who is a member of the Low Bee message board. It was first used in retaliation on his blog when he was surprised that people were not appreciating the other aspects of house music that were coming out or more traditional classic tracks. It has been concluded, although not implied in the definition of blog house, that there is a negative connotation surrounding the usage of the word stemming from the fact that the music is sometimes over hyped on blogs and the people listening to it are scene hoppers. For some, hearing a DJ play blog house signifies that they know very little about the actual history of house music and are just playing, listening and talking about these particular songs since they have gotten hyped from certain taste maker blogs.
