Eurobeat és el nom de dos gèneres musicals d'Europa. Un és una variant britànica del dance-pop italià influït per l'eurodisco[1] i l'altre és una forma d' italo disco impulsada per hi-NRG.[2] Ambdues formes es van desenvolupar als anys 1980 del segle xx.
Eurobeat està també directament relacionat amb la cultura dance japonesa del Para Para però d'una manera diferent.

ISBN 9781134957927. «Eurorecords had to have immediate cross-national appeal, musical simplicity was of the essence- a bouncy beat, just one chorus hook, elementary lyrics. The fun of these records was entirely a matter of sound quality, but once a record was a hit it took on a kind of sleazy, nostalgic charm of its own. It was precisely the brazen utility of these records, in short, that gave them gay disco consumer appeal too.[…] Eurodisco also had an obvious element of camp -British club audiences took delight in the very gap between the grand gestures of Eurosingers and the vacuity of their songs.»
