Disko

Disko alebo disco je druh tanečného hudobného žánru, ktorý obsahuje prvky latinsko-americkej hudby, funku, soulu, popu, salsy a psychedelickej hudby. Tento hudobný štýl bol najpopulárnejší od polovice do konca 70. rokov 20. storočia, ale aj od tej doby sa jeho popularita niekoľkokrát nakrátko obnovovala.^[6] Disco užíva „four-on-the-floor“ rytmu.

Etymologicky by sme pôvod názvu tohto žánru mohli priradiť k francúzskemu slovu „discothèque“, ktorým sa označuje knižnica fonografických nahrávok (hudobných diskov), no neskôr sa zaužívalo aj pre označenie nočných klubov Paríža.^[7] V priebehu 60. a začiatkom 70. rokov boli v New Yorku a Philadephii prvotnými návštevníkmi takýchto klubov hlavne Afroameričania,^[8] Taliani amerického pôvodu,^[9] hispánski a latinskí Američania a členovia psychedelických komunít. Disko bolo tiež reakciou na dominanciu rockovej hudby a stigmatizáciu tanečnej hudby kontrakultúrou, ktorá dominovala v tejto dobe. Veľmi vrúcne prijali disko štýl hlavne ženy a táto hudba sa nakoniec šírila do niekoľkých ďalších vtedy ešte marginalizovaných spoločenstiev.^{[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]}.
