Stutter House

Stutter house is a microgenre of electronic dance music characterized by its frenetic, stuttering rhythms, often created through innovative use of trap-influenced drum patterns and intricate, glitchy sound design. Emerging in the mid-2010s, stutter house drew inspiration from UK garage, bassline, and Jersey club, with artists experimenting with unconventional production techniques to craft a unique sonic identity. The genre gained popularity around 2020, particularly among online music communities, where its high-energy beats and playful, percussive textures resonated with fans seeking a fresh take on traditional dance music. Stutter house's cultural significance lies in its democratization of electronic music production, with artists pushing the boundaries of what is possible within the genre. Its distinct stuttering effect, often achieved through creative use of audio processing techniques, sets it apart from similar styles like hyperpop and plunderphonics, while its blending of UK and US influences reflects the genre's global, internet-driven roots.
