Overview Hard dance is an umbrella term that refers to a group of hard electronic dance genres which are not fast enough in tempo to be classified as hardcore. The term usually includes genres such as hard house, hard NRG, hard trance and hardstyle. The tempo for these genres is typically 140-180BPM, with a 4/4 rhythm (specifically four-on-the-floor). It is not uncommon for the term "hard dance" to be associated with other electronic dance genres such as hardcore and psytrance. Hard dance is typically an underground musical movement, one which breaks away from British popular dance music. Origin The term hard dance was originally used to describe music to dance to at rave parties. Hard dance is popular among practitioners of jumpstyle,melbourne shuffle, and other hard dance styles. |
