When you think of disco, you probably think of glitter, disco balls, LED dance floors, and funky music. Maybe, depending on the information you have learned about the era, you think about the DJs or record labels. But, disco, especially in the 70s, was much more than that.

So, what exactly is disco?
Disco is a dance-based pop music genre that started in the 1960s and reached its peak in the 1970s. It usually revolved around urban nightlife, and focused on music based on electric instruments, basslines and string sections.
