Boogie is a groove-oriented dance music style that emerged in the late 1970s and early 1980s, blending disco's four-on-the-floor rhythms with funk's syncopated basslines and early electronic production. Characterized by its infectious, rolling bass, synth flourishes, and mid-tempo feel, boogie creates an effortlessly smooth yet energetic atmosphere perfect for both dance floors and laid-back listening. The sound bridges multiple cultures and eras, from its American funk roots to Brazilian and European interpretations, maintaining a timeless appeal through its emphasis on rhythm and groove.
