Old house music is a genre of electronic dance music that originated in the early to mid-1980s. It was originally a type of disco that was influenced by soul, funk, and Latin music. House music became popular in Chicago clubs in the mid-1980s and began to spread to other parts of the United States and Europe in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
Old house music is characterized by a 4/4 time signature, a repetitive bassline, and a tempo of 120 to 130 beats per minute. The genre was originally created by DJs who blended together various tracks from different genres to create a new sound.
