discos
Strobe-lit dance halls
Discos is the plural of disco, the dance music and nightclub culture that dominated the late 1970s.
Disco featured synthesizers, steady four-on-the-floor beats, and orchestral flourishes.
The venues themselves were also called discos: We hit three discos that night.
The word survives in compounds like disco ball and disco nap—a pre-evening rest before going out.
