Footwork Bands and Artists List
Footwork, also called juke, or Chicago juke, is a genre of electronic dance music derived from ghetto house with elements of hip hop, first appearing in Chicago in the late 1990s. The music style evolved from the earlier, rapid rhythms of ghetto house, a change pioneered by RP Boo, DJ Rashad and DJ Clent. It may draw from the rapid rhythms and sub-bass frequencies of drum & bass. Tracks also frequently feature heavily syncopated samples from rap, pop and other sources, and are often around 160 bpm. The term juke music may be used as a synonym for footwork music, or may be used to differentiate between footwork and the closely related proper juke music born in the 1990s from ghetto house together with footwork music, and somewhat predating it.
Footwork is also a style of house dance, closely associated with juke and footwork music, and typified by very fast and chaotic feet moves.
