Traffic

Dance (as a broad, mainstream club- and radio-oriented style) is pop-leaning music designed primarily for dancing, characterized by steady, driving beats, catchy hooks, and production that translates well to nightclubs and large sound systems. It emerged after disco, blending four-on-the-floor rhythms with electronic instrumentation and pop songwriting, and it continually absorbs elements from house, techno, Hi-NRG, synth-pop, and later EDM. Tempos commonly fall between 110–130 BPM, vocals often emphasize memorable choruses, and arrangements are structured for both club mixing and mass appeal.
