Electroclash

Electroclash fuses electro, techno, synth-pop, new wave, punk and performance art. Early
examples of the style include Miss Kittin & The Hacker's Champagne! E.P. and I-f's "Space
Invaders Are Smoking Grass". DJ Larry Tee, who coined the term, and DJ Hell, whose
International Deejay Gigolo Records label was home to many of the acts, helped create a
cohesive scene in the early 2000s. The term is particularly associated with acts such as
Miss Kittin & The Hacker, Fischerspooner, Tiga, and Goldfrapp. Towards the middle of the
2000s, elements of the sound became popular in mainstream music with artists such as
Madonna and Kylie Minogue releasing material with an electroclash sound.
