What is House Music?

House music is a style of electronic dance music that originated in Chicago in the early 1980s. It is characterized by a strong 4/4 beat, often with a syncopated bassline, and features samples of disco or funk tracks. House music quickly became popular in nightclubs around the world, and by the early 1990s, it had begun to gain mainstream popularity.

There are many different subgenres of house music, each with its own distinct sound and style. The most popular genres include deep house, tech house, minimal house, and progressive house. House music is always evolving, and new subgenres are constantly emerging.

The Origins of House Music

The origins of house music are a matter of some debate. One theory is that it emerged in the early 1980s, when DJs in Chicago began experimenting with mixing disco and electronic music. Another belief is that house music was created by Frankie Knuckles, a DJ who played a key role in the development of the genre.

Whatever its origins, there is no doubt that house music quickly became popular in the clubs of Chicago and other cities in the Midwest. By the end of the 1980s, house music had spread to Europe, where it found a receptive audience among clubgoers. In the 1990s, house music became one of the most popular genres in the world, with hits such as Daft Punk’s “Around the World” and Rozalla’s “Everybody’s Free (To Feel Good).”

Today, house music is still going strong, with new artists such as Avicii and Calvin Harris taking the genre in exciting new directions. If you’re a fan of house music, check out our list of the top 100 house songs of all time.
