Eurodance (sometimes known as Euro-NRG or Euro) is a genre of electronic music that originated in the late 1980s in Europe. It combines many elements of techno,〔 hi-NRG,〔 house music〔 and Euro disco.〔 Eurodance production continues to evolve with a more modernized style that incorporates elements from electro music. This genre of music is heavily influenced by the use of rich melodic vocals, either exclusively by itself or inclusively with rapped verses. This, combined with cutting-edge synthesizer, strong bass rhythm and melodic hooks, establishes the core foundation of Eurodance music.〔 It peaked at Ibiza's summer festivals of 1994 in Spain and its intense popularity then spread around the world, which carried on into late 1997. ==Definition== The term "Eurodance" gradually became associated with a specific style of European dance music. During its golden years in the mid-1990s, it was referred as "Euro-NRG"; in Europe it was often called "dancefloor" or simply "dance".〔(Elixic.de: Genrelexikon: Dance ) Click on "''weiterlesen''" to see full article.
