Euro Disco

Euro disco is the variety of European forms of electronic dance music that first originated from disco in the 1970s; incorporating elements of pop, New Wave, and rock into disco-like continuous dance atmosphere. Many Euro disco compositions feature lyrics sung in English, although the singers often share a different mother tongue.

Euro disco derivatives generally include Europop and Eurodance, with the most prominent subgenres being space disco of the late 1970s and italo disco of the early 1980s. The genre has declined in popularity after 1985 in preference to synth rock and hi-NRG, with a small revival of italo disco in the late 1990s.
