Why “House” Is Called House (w/ Graham Gold) — From Disco, Warehouses & Pirate Radio to Kiss FM


What if house music was almost called bungalow? 😂


Legendary DJ & broadcaster Graham Gold sits down with Dexter to reveal the real origin of the word “House,” how the Chicago Warehouse era reshaped dance music, and why most DJs don’t actually know their own history.


We go deep on pirate radio, the late-70s disco backlash, the evolution through soul/jazz-funk, and Graham’s rise from Gulliver’s to Kiss FM - plus a spicy debate on social media vs. talent in 2025.


If you love dance music history, radio war stories, and hard-won advice for DJs trying to break through today, this one’s a masterclass.
