Music composed and/or played specifically for social dancing--as such, dance music includes a huge variety of music, from rock and roll to country music to traditional music such as Irish traditional music. For many younger people, such as those who frequent nightclubs, "dance music" more specifically refers to offshoots of rock and roll such as disco and techno. See also hip hop, breakdancing, funk, Drum and Bass, Reggae, and Electronic music.

Among some of the better-known kinds of dance tunes in Europe and America are the waltz, the polka?, the reel?, various kinds of jig?, and the breakdown? (feel free to add to this list!).
