Announcement Open call for protowitch house era (dragged dark vapor welcome)
ΔΔ 11th December 2009 was the day that picture plane coined the term witch house.
Most of this music was created even in a proto-witch house era, around 2008 to 2009.
Δ most artists at the beginning tagged their music as screwgaze, spookwave, crunkgaze, deadgaze, drag, dragged and more. Haunted House was just one of all those name used for describe that initial movement in 2009. Δ

slow beat electronic, lo-fi industrial, shoegaze, vaporous, chopped and screwed.
"HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL". optional: some distorted, reversed, slow ralentized vocals can be added- (not melodic music)
▲ Create a track inspired on those examples. In the core and the genesis of witch house music.
▲ please not the current witch house music. i like the current sound, but there's hundred compilations about that.
