The Euro-Sound started in Germany and spread out to the clubs, bars and party capitals of Europe, it should not be seen as the European Sound par see. (Euro-Sound is a General Style of music)

While chart tunes are played in the European Clubs, Bars and Party Capitals, most of the music is unique to these types of premises, and does not feature in the charts.

Because the Euro-Sound is a style, it does not relate to any specific instrument. (Although keyboards in general do tend to predominate)

For further examples, go to the unused styles in your keyboard, and you will find plenty of styles (And OTS) with Euro within the name. (Just add reverb to get the bright club sound)

Bill, in this case, I'm pretty sure you were warning about the high organ content of the clip, not that it used a modern house beat...

This would have got a pretty decent review IF the player had used what WOULD be authentic 'house', 'European disco' (whatever you want to call it) lead sounds (as, in fact, he moved to towards the end). But sticking that awful skating rink organ on top of a contemporary beat is no more authentic than me using a synth solo on a bluegrass tune!
