Footwork

Footwork is a frenetic and innovative electronic music genre that emerged from Chicago's vibrant dance scene in the late 1990s. Characterized by its rapid-fire beats, syncopated rhythms, and complex sampling, footwork pushes dancers to their limits with tempos often exceeding 160 BPM. Known for its influence on modern electronic styles, it combines elements of juke, hip-hop, and house, creating an energetic and competitive atmosphere that fuels both dance battles and underground clubs.
