Dance-punk
Dance-Punk is a type of Punk music originating in the late 70s. The genre mixes the energy of punk rock and post-punk's experimentalism with the danceable rhythms of Funk and early Disco (although distinct to the similar punk funk style; dance-punk tends to be smoother and more synthetic than the latter, and less closely associated with post-punk's abrasiveness). It was mainly prominent in new york's punk music movement and had close associations with the late 1970s no wave scene. Key artists included ESG, Lizzy Mercier Descloux and Liquid Liquid.
