Tecktonik is a form of dance based on a blend of techno styles (late 80s vogue, 90s waving and old school breakdancing), and 70s disco, started in the early 2000s in Paris, France, at the club Metropolis. The music Tecktonik is usually danced to is electro house. Tecktonik has not yet succeeded in creating its own music genre, even though multiple attempts have been made. It has grown in popularity through word-of-mouth and video sharing sites such as Dailymotion and YouTube.
