Hip house , also known as house rap , is a musical genre that mixes elements of house music and hip-hop . The style rose to prominence during the 1980s in New York and Chicago . [ 1 ] However, in the UK, the first officially credited hip house track was 1987's Rok Da House by UK producers the Beatmasters featuring British female emcees the Cookie Crew . Minor controversy ensued in 1989 when a U.S. record called "Turn Up The Bass" by Tyree Cooper featuring Kool Rock Steady claimed it was the "first hip house record on vinyl."

It was later used when describing the music coming from Kieran Hebden and his Four Tet project in 2001. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 2 ] In 2001, postmodern pop artist Momus released an album titled Folktronic deliberately exploring (and satirizing) the fusion.

Grindie is a form of music that emerged in early 2006 . It is a fusion of both indie and grime music .

[ citation needed ] Grime producer Statik is one of the main proponents of the genre and also one of the first to release an album containing only grindie tracks, 'Grindie Vol 1'. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] His second album (featuring Pete Doherty , Nicodemus Flower, Wretch 32 , Coco Sumner , and Fyfe Dangerfield was, true to form another Grindie album but rather than stick any MC over a popular indie track, he developed the genre into its own unique sound by placing popular singers on truly grime influenced beats.
