House music isn’t just about the dancing it’s straight from the soul… 

I had to steal the following paragraph from ERAN AVINER SIMPLY because it is 💯 % unarguably correct.. 

“Because absolutely nothing compares to music. This language, whose universal vibes can 
be understood by anybody, connects people around the globe be it religions, cultures or ethnicity. Great tunes turn strangers into friends. One note expresses more emotions than a thousand words. Music goes on where words fall short. It simply touches your soul.
