The word "disco" is the abbreviation of "disco", which originally meant "ballroom for people to dance" and originated in France in the early 1960s. In the 1960s, with the update of music equipment, the ballroom could complete the work of the original band as long as it had a record player, and it could also get all kinds of different music at any time, which was economical.
Therefore, major dance halls no longer hire bands to accompany them, but hire a record player to provide dance music by playing records. Slowly, people call this dance music played by records disco.
