House

House music is electronic dance music originated in Chicago in the early 1980s. It was initially popularized by DJ Frankie Knuckles, who is often credited with its creation. House music quickly spread to other American cities, such as Detroit and New York, and then to the rest of the world. Musically, house music features a 4/4 time signature and a repetitive, hypnotic melody. The typical instrumentation includes drums, bass, keyboards, and sometimes vocals. It is often associated with the club scene and dancefloor culture. It's also frequently played at parties, festivals, and other events.
