Rave music consists of forms of electronic music for dancing that are associated with the rave scene. Most often, it is used to describe techno music that depends heavily on samples and is high energy, upbeat, and dance inducing.
Rave music got it start in Britain in the mid 1980s, closely following the acid house phenomenon. Initially "rave music" was considered a particular style that was a combination of fast breakbeat and more hardcore forms of techno. Early 1990s efforts by The Prodigy (The Prodigy Experience), Utah Saints and The Shamen (En-Tact) were quintessential "rave music".
