Gabber (; Dutch: [ˈxɑbər]), is a style of electronic music and a subgenre of hardcore techno. It is characterised by fast beats and samples, and was developed in Rotterdam in the 1990s by producers like Paul Elstak. Seminal early labels were Rotterdam Records, Mokum Records and Industrial Strength Recordings. The word "gabber" comes from Amsterdam Bargoens slang and means "friend".
Gabber and its subculture became highly popular in the Netherlands, eventually becoming part of mainstream culture in the 1990s. The music quickly spread to London and the Midwestern United States. After falling out of fashion, it became popular again in the 2000s and once more in the late 2010s.
