Horse Meat Disco

Horse Meat Disco, an electronic act with roots in disco, plays at the Hare & Hounds in Birmingham. The night centres on dance music built on the grooves and rhythms of disco and house.

Horse Meat Disco is an electronic act whose music is rooted in disco, the dance style built on steady four-to-the-floor beats, funk basslines and soul-inflected vocals. Disco developed in the United States in the 1970s, and its influence on later house and electronic dance music is well documented. This act brings those grooves into an electronic format, placing disco's rhythms within the wider tradition of club-oriented dance production.

The Hare & Hounds is a venue in Birmingham that hosts concerts and shows, so this visit gives local audiences a chance to hear the act in person during a night of live electronic music. The evening will suit anyone who follows disco-based dance music, from listeners who know the original records to those drawn to modern electronic production that draws on them.
