Garage is a musical genre that initially appeared in the United States and Britain during the 1960s. It is characterized by the raw energy that comes from the simplicity of the three chords and intense vocal performances. Live performances in garage often use experimental and improvised techniques. Later, the same name was adopted for UK Garage in the 1990s, a genre of electronic music that blends elements of house, R&B, and jungle, creating a dynamic and danceable effect.
