Electropunk

Electropunk emerged in the late 1970s as a cheeky fusion of punk's rebellious spirit and electronic music's burgeoning technology, typically found in the underground clubs of Berlin and London. It sounds like someone set a synthesiser on fire while still trying to sing about anarchy, layering distorted beats with sneering vocals, often with lyrics that could make a librarian blush. This genre paved the way for a myriad of electronic music styles, proving that you could indeed dance while lamenting the state of the world.
