Jersey Club
Jersey Club is a genre of electronic dance music that originated in the early 2000s in New Jersey. It is characterized by its fast tempo, typically around 130-140 beats per minute, and features heavy use of syncopated rhythms, chopped vocal samples, and bass-heavy drops. The genre often incorporates elements from hip-hop, house, and Baltimore club music, creating a unique sound that encourages energetic dancing.
The style gained popularity through local parties and online platforms, leading to a broader recognition in the music scene. Artists and producers like DJ Sliink and TroyBoi have played significant roles in its evolution, helping to bring Jersey Club to a wider audience while maintaining its roots in the local culture.
