The main reason why most people go to night clubs is so they can get out on the dance floor. Dancing is something that is important in many cultures, and it is something that most people love to do, whether they like to admit it or not. For as many different dance styles that there, there are different styles of music. Today, people want exciting music that is going to get their hearts pumping and their feet moving, with a beat that never seems to stop.

Today, many people enjoy dancing to electronic dance music. In Atlanta, this type of music, also referred to as EDM, can be found at popular dance clubs. EDM is created through the use of a variety of musical instruments. EDM started becoming popular in night clubs in the 1990’s, and has really taken off in the last five to 10 years or so. It is played at discos, night clubs, dances, and other settings where people want to get up and dance and have a great beat to dance to.

A lot of popular songs from other decades are rearranged to become EDM. Deejays will play popular songs, and change the tempos so they are in sync with other music. A lot of the same drums that were used for the popular disco music of the 1970’s are used to create a lot of the beats. Everything is then synched together with the use of a mixing board or other similar mixing device. Originally, EDM was a blend of disco, hip-hop, techno-pop, and house music.

While EDM may be considered new to many people, it is actually a form of music that has been around for a few decades. Its history goes back to Jamaican dance music in the 1960’s, when artists would overdub many different instrumental tracks to create new versions of popular songs. The art evolved over the years into what is popular in night clubs today, and who wants to dance the night away to electronic dance music in Atlanta only needs to go as far as the Opera dance club.
