House Music, dance music of the 1980s that combines funk with European high-tech pop and uses dub, digital sampling, and cross-fading. House music originated in the inner-city clubs of Chicago, Illinois. Acid house has minimal vocals and melody, instead surrounding the mechanically emphasized 4/4 beat with stripped-down synthesizer riffs and a wandering bass line. Other variants include hip house, which uses rap elements, and handbag (mainstream).
