Eurodance 1/9

Eurodance is a style of music that became popular in Europe in the 1990s. It is characterized by its fast, driving rhythms, electronic sounds and danceable melodies. Eurodance is usually produced by electronic instruments and often relies on synthetic voices and samples.

The roots of Eurodance lie in the Italian disco music of the 1970s and the Euro-disco of the 1980s. Artists such as Giorgio Moroder and Cerrone shaped the genre with their fast, driving rhythms, electronic sounds, and danceable melodies, and were considered the forerunners of Eurodance.

In the 1990s, Eurodance was popularized by artists such as Haddaway, Dr. Alban, and La Bouche. These artists focused on fast, driving rhythms, electronic sounds and danceable melodies, and were known for their energetic live performances.

One of the most style-defining albums of Eurodance is "Real Things" by 2 Unlimited, which was released in 1994. 2 Unlimited is a Dutch band known for their Eurodance hits such as "No Limit", "Get Ready for This" and "Twilight Zone".

Eurodance is particularly well suited for licensing in movies, TV shows and commercials that want to convey an energetic or danceable mood.
