Tecktonik

Tecktonik (also known as "tck") is a form of dance based on a blend of hip hop and techno styles. It originated in France and has grown in popularity through word-of-mouth and video sharing sites. Tecktonik was featured prominently at the 2007 Paris Techno Parade on September 15, 2007.

Tecktonik appeared in France in 2000 in Paris in a nightclub called Metropolis. It borrows heavily from elements of hip-hop dance moves including popping and locking.

Typical dress for tecktonik dancers include tight-fitting jackets and slim-fit jeans. Dancers also tend to have "futuristic" hair cuts and sometimes wear makeup designs such as a star around one eye. Tecktonik style borrows heavily from cyberpunk. The neon colours on shirts are linked to the London Nu Rave fashion scene.
