	Electro (music) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Electro (also known as electro[ ]funk) is an electronic style of hip hop directly influenced by Kraftwerk and funk records (unlike earlier rap records that were closer to disco).
		Records in the genre are unabashed about their use of electronic and artificial sounds, taking this technological fetish almost into science fiction with many records about space travel and futuristic dystopias.
		Detroit also has a unique style sometimes called "electro" which is more similar to modern house-like techno.

		The instrumentation of hip-hop is descended from disco, funk, and RandB, both in the sound systems and records sampled, and session musicians and their instrumentation, used.
		Thus the instrumentation of early sampled or sound system-based hip hop is the same as funk, disco, or rock: vocals, guitar, keyboards, bass, drums and percussion.
		Though G Funk was the most popular variety of hip hop in the early 90s, New York's hip hop scene did not disappear, and remained an integral part of the industry, producing such well-regarded acts as The Wu-Tang Clan and Busta Rhymes as well as acclaimed acts A Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul.

	A history of electro
		Central to the confusion is the term itself, which during 82/83 (before it was shortened to electro) was specific to the UK.
		The development of the techno sound in Detroit and house music in Chicago in the early to late 1980s, and the later acid house movement of the late 1980s and early 1990s all fuelled the development and acceptance of electronic music into the mainstream and to introduce electronic dance music to nightclubs.
		Electro was fl science fiction teleported to the dancefloors of New York, Miami and LA; a super-stoopid fusion of video games, techno-pop, graffiti art, silver space suits and cyborg funk.

	Electro-funk history
		Perhaps the main reason that electro funk remains a mystery to so many people is because it’s audience was predominantly fl at a time when cutting-edge fl music (and fl culture in general) was very much marginalized in the UK, and as a result essentially underground.
		The reason the electro scene took so long to fully establish itself in the capital was down to the stranglehold the all-powerful Soul Mafia DJ’s held on the Southern scene.
		It wouldn’t be until 84 that their virtual monopoly of the clubs, radio, and the fl music press began to erode as a new order of music replaced the old, laying the foundations not only for Hip-Hop, but also the subsequent UK techno and house scenes.

		Before Afrika Bambaataa and The Soul Sonic Force's seminal Electro classic, 'Planet Rock' (Tommy Boy) exploded on the scene in May 82, there had already been a handful of releases in the previous months that would help define this new genre.
		Electro's star burnt very brightly, initially on the underground and eventually with the club masses.
