What is House Music?

House music is a genre of electronic dance music that originated in Chicago in the 1980s.

The History of House Music

House music is a genre of electronic dance music that originated in Chicago in the early 1980s.

The sound of house music is based on a four-on-the-floor drumbeat, off-beat hi-hat cymbals, and synthesizer basslines. The name “house music” comes from the fact that it was often played in nightclubs in Chicago that were called “house clubs.”

By the mid-1990s, house music had become one of the most popular genres of electronic dance music.
