house music

A genre of dance music popular at raves, often held in warehouses (hence the name). It's heavily eletronic, with a repetitive 4/4 beat (four-to-the-floor) and a lot of synth and bass. Usually not too many lyrics. Related to trance and techno.

Technotronic's "Pump up the Jam" was the biggest house music song of the year.
