====Music==== [[Eurodance]] and [[Trance music]] originated in Frankfurt. In 1989 German producers Michael Münzing and Luca Anzilotti (under the pseudonyms Benito Benites and John "Virgo" Garrett III) formed the [[Snap!]] project. Snap! songs combined [[Hip hop music|Rap]] and [[Soul music|Soul]] vocals adding rhythm by using computer technology and mixing electronic sounds, bass and drums. By doing so a new genre was born: Eurodance.<ref>{{cite news |author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> |title=Neue Ehrlichkeit.

Some of the early and most influential Eurodance, Trance and [[Techno music|Techno]] acts, e.g., [[La Bouche]], [[Jam and Spoon]], [[Magic Affair]], [[Culture Beat]], [[Snap!]], [[Dance 2 Trance]], [[Oliver Lieb]] and [[Hardfloor]], and record labels such as [[Harthouse]] and [[Eye Q (record label)|Eye Q]], were based in the city in the early 1990s.
