What are the different types of dance music?
Can someone help me make a list of different types of dance music (disco, house, trip-hop, dubstep)? I am doing a video project and would like to get a list of different styles of music so I can make my research a little easier. It doesn't matter what country the music is from, just list what you know. Thanks! (Please no commentary about how much you hate dance music, etc., thanks).
1. you didn't answer my question. you directed me to your question. that was kind of wack. thumbs down.
I am not just talking about edm because I do not believe "disco" would be considered under that label so if there are "dance" or club sub genres beyond what is listed here, please include. Thanks.

Breakbeat
Gabber
Happy Hardcore
Trance (psi-trance, all the stupid variants)
House (progressive house, all the stupid variants)
Drum and Bass
Dub
Techno
Bounce
Soul a GoGo
Miami Bass
