I had to listen to hear what all the controversy was about. :) I tried a 24db low pass filter at 500hz with Q=0.1 on it. This sounded much better to me, as it got rid of the crackling noises which were making it unpleasant for me to listen to. With the crackles gone, the variations of sound, pitch and tempo were more discernible and it made more sense. If it were my music, I'd do the low pass and then put the occasional chime from a glockenspiel or metal bar, recorded acoustically and absolutely as natural sounding as possible. There is so much space left after low passing that a few metallic sounds would just drift above it all. That's what I think anyway. I actually like to listen to this kind of thing. I would put the genre as 'electronic/minimal' though, rather than house, as 'house' has a very specific meaning to me.
