2.Techno: technology, which means "high-tech dance music"! Using computers and synthesizers to make some special sound effects, this kind of music can be said to be a combination of various sound effects. Techno's beat is also 4/4 beat, but it is faster than House's, and it sounds repetitive, tough and mechanized, so some people call Techno "industrial noise", but others still pay attention to melody. Techno originated in Detroit, USA, and there are three DJs: Derek May. Kevin Sonderson and Juan Atkins tried to combine electronic music with black music to produce DetroitTechno. DetroitTechno is usually mild, not as strong as ordinary Techno, which can be said to be the origin of modern Techno.
3. Ambient music: It doesn't sound like much ups and downs, but it keeps changing. For example, long-term sound effects or gradual music arrangement often create a layered sense of space, so it is called "situational music" and often samples the sounds around life, such as human voices, car noises and even the melodies of other music ... and so on. What Briano created in 1970s is a kind of "profound" electronic music. Later, Ambient also had branches, such as AmbientHouse, AmbientTechno ... and so on. I believe everyone can understand it literally. In fact, there will be the shadow of Ambient in many kinds of music, and even some classical music has the taste of Ambient.
4. trance: psychedelic dance music, evolved from Techno, will make you feel "lost" after listening to it, but it still maintains the rhythm of dance music, attaches great importance to the performance of bass, and some will have the effect of "hypnosis" after listening. The beat is also based on 4/4 beats. But I've also heard of breaking beat (which will be introduced below), such as SvenVath's album Fusion.
5. Mental trance: Also known as goat fetish, it originated from an island in India. Goa is the name of this island. Melody often has Indian flavor. This kind of trance is characterized by attaching great importance to melody, subtle changes between notes, frequent melody overlap and high-pitched TB-303 sound. This is an atmosphere.
6.Breakbeat: it is not as regular as House's boom-boom-boom, but it is presented in a broken beat, like a split beat. For example, two beats plus a small broken drum and so on. Breakbeat is just a general term, and many kinds of music belong to break beat, such as Brit-Hop, Big-Beat and black Hip-Hop below.
7.Brit-Hop: Accelerate the rhythm of black hip-hop and increase the drums. Coupled with a little electric guitar and bass, it has the taste of rock music, such as the style of biochemical brothers.
8. Big-beat: "Big Beat" makes Brit-Hop faster, more rhythmic and more rock-and-roll. It can be said that it is a more mature style after the improvement of Brit-Hop. You can imagine what a heavy, broken and somewhat fast beat looks like. For example, Super Band, Chemical Brothers Band and Fat Slim are all "big guys".
9.Trip-Hop: slow down the Hip-Hop rhythm (sometimes very slow), add some psychedelic flavors, such as gloomy and full bass, slight but psychedelic synthetic sound effects, or sample some records. Sometimes even the noise of a record may be "deliberately" sampled. The recognized iron triangle in Trip-Hop: Portishead, Tricky, MassiveAttack. Trip-Hop originated in Bristol, England, so it was originally called "BristolHip-Hop". In fact, a lot of music is based on hip-hop music ... I wonder what hip-hop is? Go to see street dancers. Most of them dance to hip-hop music.
10. Drum bass: For some people, the music of drum bass may be boring, because drum bass pays great attention to playing tricks in rhythm and the performance of bass, such as fast and complicated beat breaking and the use of various electronic drums or sampling drums. So, drum up.
1 1. Jungle: Jungle is the predecessor of drum bass. Jungle is much faster than drum bass, and the beat is more complicated and stronger, sometimes with a little rap. Unlike drum bass, which combines jazz, soul music and other elements, it sounds softer (of course, this is with drum bass.
12.Electro: as early as the late 1970s and early 1980s, there were no such things as House and Techno ... electronic music was not very popular, only electronic music. Electronic sound can be said to be music made by a synthesizer, which looks a bit like a keyboard and is usually quite soft. Moreover, the drum machine TR-808 of Roland Company is often used to make drums. The power plant orchestra in Germany can be regarded as a representative. Now the electric timbre is much brighter and more transparent than before. Later, some DJs turned it into a kind of hip-hop music by using electronic music, which is called OldSchool. Now FatboySlim has also added some electronic music to his music.
13.Dub:Dub can be said to be a reggae (reggae music, a South American black music with a special rhythm and singing method) to pull away songs. Dub is applied to electronic music, which extracts some songs, emphasizes bass and drums, and adds many echoes. This technology is often used in live performances. Remix songs. Album protection such as MassiveAttack was remixed from Trip-Hop music to dubbing version by MadProfessor.
14. Calm down: This is just a general statement. Usually there is an area or a small room next to the dance floor, in which some soft and calm music is usually put to let the dancers relax after the dance, and ambient music is usually played, so it is called "chill". TheOrb can be said to be ChillOut music.
15.minimalm: This is translated as "minimalism" and is often heard in environmental music and electronic music. Minimalist music has repetitive melody and special rhythm, which makes you feel hypnotized by special frequency. JeffMills's work belongs to MinimalDetroit-Techno, which is quite psychedelic.
