House Music:
House is a genre of electronic dance music characterized by a repetitive four-on-the-floor beat and a tempo of 120 to 130 beats per minute. It was created by DJs and music producers from Chicago's underground club culture in the 1980s, as DJs from the subculture began altering disco songs to give them a more mechanical beat and deeper basslines.

The genre was pioneered by DJs and producers mainly from Chicago, New York and other parts of the world. Frankie Knuckles, DJ Sneak, Bad Boy Bill, Mark Farina, Derrick Carter Czr & Ito, DJ Jes, Felix da Housecat, Fast Eddie, Terry Hunter, Armand Van Helden, Larry Levan, Ron Hardy, Chip E., Mr. Lee, Farley "Jackmaster" Funk, Marshall Jefferson, Phuture and others played a huge role in this movement and house music culture. From its beginnings in the Chicago club and local radio scene, the genre expanded internationally to London, then to other American cities such as New York City and Detroit before becoming a worldwide phenomenon.

House music has had a large impact on pop music, especially dance music. It was incorporated by major pop artists including Janet Jackson, Madonna and Kylie Minogue, but also produced some mainstream hits on its own, such as "French Kiss" by Lil Louis (1989), "Show Me Love" by Robin S. (1992) or "Push the Feeling On" by Nightcrawlers (1992/1995). Many house producers also did and continue to do remixes for pop artists. Until today, house music has remained popular on radio and in clubs while retaining a foothold on the underground scenes across the globe.
