However, today's dance music is very different from that of the past. The history of dance music goes back to the 16th century. In the Renaissance(文藝復興)and Baroque(巴洛克)period of Europe, rich people expected to be able to dance at social events. Each type of dance gave rise to its own form of music.

During the 18th and 19th centuries the most popular dances were the waltz(華爾茲舞)and the polka(波爾卡舞). In this period, dances were often written for the concert hall. For example, symphonies(交響樂)would have a waltz movement, and piano pieces were sometimes in the waltz or polka.

In the 1970s, dance music moved into new places called discos. The music was faster, had more bass and started to become more electronic. Disco music began to develop in the US and around Europe. By the 1980s the music became much faster and even more electronic.

In the 1990s clubs took over discos. DJs mixed other people's music. Club dance rhythms(韻律)became a major part of popular music. Club dance music has different forms, including drum and bass(低音樂器), hip­hop, R & B. It made use of technology and DJs to play a bigger part in spreading the music.
