Ruta Destroy is a genre of electronic dance music that emerged from the vibrant club scene of Valencia, Spain, in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Characterized by its aggressive beats, high-energy rhythms, and a blend of techno, new beat, and EBM influences, it became the soundtrack to the Mediterranean rave culture known as "La Ruta del Bakalao." The music often incorporates dark, hypnotic, and sometimes melodic synthesizer lines, combined with samples and a strong emphasis on the percussive drive, tailor-made for the all-night party atmosphere. Ruta Destroy is not just a style of music but also a cultural phenomenon that encapsulated a freewheeling era of Spanish nightlife, with artists like DJ Sylvan, Interfront, and Megabeat leading the charge.
