Contemporary Music
In the nineteen eighties Bakalao was the dominant dance music form that appeared in the club scene of the city and the surrounding community. While pop and rock are forms enjoyed and played by local musicians there is a strong tendency towards electronica in the region. In the nineties Techno music continued to be a string favourite in the area with the heavier schrantz influence from northern Europe emerging in the early two thousands. Today minimal techno is popular and more recently the Trip-Tek style as attributed to outfits such as Electrika-MixTek.
Valencian/Catalan Rock and Ska music is also common all throughout the autonomous community of Valencia.
