Dave House started his career at Jive Records as an intern before working at Interscope Geffen Records in 2002. He started his duties at Interscope Geffen A&M working as a junior assistant to Entertainment Industry Mogul Steve Stoute. He transitioned to the Radio Promotions Department when Steve Stoute left the company. In Promotions, House was able to establish relationships with radio-station DJs’, music directors of terrestrial radio stations, Club DJs, promoters, and Promo Only Mix DJs across the country and the globe.
Dave House attended many seminars such as the Mixshow Power Summit in 2003, which was a retreat for the Music Industry Record Label, talent, and executives.
He advanced within the company by becoming an executive assistant to the National Urban Promotions Director. In this position, House was able to build relationships with Radio Program Directors and learn how to read and pull BDS and Mediabase charts. He, also, gained knowledge of "rolling and building" charts, as well as being familiar with radio station research, "call out", and radio station "ad boards".
House would moonlight as a writer for a now defunct website, urbanconnects.com. He would project songs and their positions on the charts and how they would affect the music market. House's ability to do this, during his time as an
executive assistant, made him popular and gave him the reputation as a person who knew the "ins and outs" of radio airplay and chart positioning.
Dave House, once again, advanced within Interscope Geffen A&M in 2006,when he obtained a position to work the entire Rhythmic Crossover format for a mixshow.
During his almost 9 year career with the company, Dave House achieved award certifications from the RIAA, which commended him for the sales of over 50 million records. In 2010, Dave was commended for obtaining over 100 million spins detected on records he had worked on the mixshow on terrestrial network and internet
radio.
Dave House continues to work closely, behind the scenes, in the music industry helping veteran acts re-launch their careers or helping new acts guide their careers. While continuing to market and promote records in the music business, Dave House will be releasing a book based on his experience working in the music industry. It will be released/sold digitally and in book stores. In addition to the
endeavors in publishing, Dave House will also be working on a theme for a film project in an effort to expand his entertainment executive portfolio.
