    • 2010 September 25, Tim Jonze, “Witch house and the musicians taking us back to the future”, in The Guardian[1]:
      Inspired by early rave and dream-pop, witch house also takes its cue from the "chopped and screwed" remix technique so prevalent in early 90s hip-hop.
  2. Used other than figuratively or idiomatically: see witch,‎ house.
