THE MOVEMENT OF TECHNO MUSIC




Slowly rising out of the city of Detroit, Michigan was the very interesting tasteful sound of TECHNO music during the mid or late 1980's. Techno is a form of electronic dance music. There are many different forms of it. There is tech house, trance, electronic dance is different from techno but helps describe it. There are so many forms.


Trance was developed in the mid 1990's. It is usually characterized by 130and 155BPM that builds up high and low sounds through out the track. All of this music was somewhat used to help alter the state of consciousness to get your brain moving into a flowy dance that let you be in another world. Some trance music has been linked to shamanists using a form of early trance music for spiritual experiences. This muisc is for dancing and vibrant colors. Germany is somewhat called the birthplace for trance music. The few major forms of trance music is:classic trance; acid trance; progressive trance; and uplifting trance. Goa trance emerged the same time with the other trance music. It originated in India, it was a very influential to psychedelic trance.


Synthesizers and snare drums, kick drums, are used in the music. Trance usually uses a hook melody that runs throughout the entire song keeping it tied together and flow well. The entire list of different techno and trance music genre are: Techno, House, Deep house, Breakbeats, Electronic, Trance, Progressive, Hard Trance, Tribal, Drum-n-bass, Jungle, Hardstyle, Goa, Psychedelic, Big beat, old school and new school. Electronic uses a lot of electrical instruments.
