Electro House

Description

Electro House is characterized by a prominent bassline and/or kick drum and a tempo between 125 and 135 beats per minute. It often features a 'dirty' or 'gritty' sound with heavy use of synthesizers and electronic effects.

History

Electro House emerged in the early 2000s as a subgenre of house music. It gained popularity through the works of artists like Benny Benassi and later became mainstream with the rise of EDM in the late 2000s and early 2010s. The genre evolved by incorporating elements from other electronic music styles, such as techno and electroclash, and became a staple in nightclubs and festivals worldwide.
