house music

Dance music of the 1980s originating in the inner-city clubs of Chicago, Illinois. With its origins in disco, it combines funk with European high-tech pop, and uses dub, digital sampling, and cross-fading. Acid house has minimal vocals and melody. Instead, a mechanically emphasized 4/4 beat is supported by stripped-down synthesizer riffs and a wandering bass line. Other variants include hip house, with rap elements, and handbag (mainstream).

The term probably derives from the Warehouse, one of the clubs that pioneered this type of music.
