House Music

House music is a genre of electronic dance music that originated in the 1980s in Chicago. Characterized by a steady four-on-the-floor beat, synthesizers, and soulful vocal samples, it invites dancing and social connection. Its roots blend disco, funk, and soul, reflecting themes of liberation and community. Over the years, house music has evolved into various sub-genres—such as deep house, tech house, and progressive house—each adding unique elements while maintaining the core rhythmic structure. It remains influential in clubs, festivals, and mainstream music, showcasing its enduring appeal and cultural significance.
