Hi-NRG is an early evolution of new-style disco. It is typified with simple, fast, danceable early house styles where the bass often takes the place of the hi-hat. Considered to be a cheesy, obsolete form of house by underground fans but still played in some of the more commercial clubs.
The defining Hi-NRG track is Evelyn Thomas' "High Energy", produced by Ian Levine (Jones and Kantonen, 1999).
Hi-NRG musicians include:
