na but really, what cities have the best house music scene
i'm guessing Chicago, NYC, and Miami.
I need to comment on this because it's frustrating to me how people think of artists like Tiesto, Kaskade, Avicii, David Guetta, etc when they hear the term "house music." This is not genuine house music and truthfully is not much of a step up from pop music. I don't mean to sound pretentious or anything but I think it needs to addressed. Ultra/Electric Daisy headliners don't constitute genuine house music acts. These artists I consider to be more genuine house/trance acts.

did you post 6 hrs of house music? you, sir or ms, are awesome
gotta love miami b/c the house music never stops. if you're staying in a hotel on collins ave or ocean dr or wherever, you will hear house music on the elevator, lobby, outside the hotel, @ mcdonald's, @the cvs, etc.. at any hour. gotta love it
Last time I was in Chi-Town I was surprised to see suped-up rides full of young dudes blasting not hip-hop, but good ole'-fashioned Booty House. Man, I used to jam to that ish back in the mid-90's. Always loved booty / "ghetto" House, but Chicago has spawned many great genres of House music. Their DJ's used to fill the TO raves of the mid-90's before Jungle / Drum & Bass overshadowed house and techno in popularity and the Brits and Toronto DJ's became the stars of the Toronto rave scene.
I'd say Miami, NYC, and Chicago (although the STRICTLY house music places in Chicago seem to be fading unfortunately). I'd bet Miami is #1 right now.
I wouldn't say Miami is #1 even with Ultra and a few other festivals that they have. They're definitely growing but I'd put NYC, Chicago, and Vegas ahead of Miami for now. Vegas really gets underrated because people just expect it to be in Vegas but Vegas with EDC is much, much more house-centric than Ultra. You also have more clubs in Vegas than Miami.
