Techno Music, The Facts

Techno pop formed from combining the abstract with the real and the natural with technology and making them all sound the same. Techno music became what is called a techno-pop group. Techno pop groups have drawn influence from European techno and ambient music. Techno music is a 20th-century musical experience that requires electronic equipment to create. Techno music is made of music synthesized by electronic devices.

The musical style began to be called techno in the mid-1980s when disc jockeys began to use a new type of musical terminology that referred to the music as techno. Techno music is typically defined by a infusion of electrical instrumentation and sound processing, and typically creates a synthetic-sounding ” swore,” or rave, beat. Techno music is generally synthesized and uses the latest advances in electronic and computer equipment to produce the sounds. Techno music is often designed to be in tune with factory-madeboogie-woogie, dance, and R&B tracks for dance clubs. Techno music synthesizes bass, drum, guitar, strings, and other synthetic sounds and often samples them. Techno music is commonly defined by its common use of the techno term as opposed to the more formal, academic-sounding term techno-pop. Techno music synthesizes funk, electro, and pastiche; a popular technique is to modify an existing track into a techno-pop or techno-hardcore track. Techno music is typically electro-oriented and can occasionally be electro-mixed with alternative rock. Techno music is influenced by electro-industrial music and Bowie, though many artists, including the Police and Luther Vandross, have played a heavy role in popularizing the form. Techno music is currently quite specialized and balcony speakers, headphones, and computer speakers are used to obtain many of the more favored sounds. Techno is probably best best defined as an electronic genre rather than as a particular form of urban music despite growing popularity.

Restless, and experimental mp3 burning technology brought the music world to a standstill as the methods to produce mp3s became readily available. Techno music could not even be captured by the record companies as the songs were completely imaginary and had no business existing. (Remember the popular misconception about how The Beatles “were reduced to just a bunch of guys in white clothes and the tickets.”) Once the Techno style had its shot, it took about two decades to finally reach escape velocity. Techno had its own fans, who enjoyed the style but could never figure out how to classify the music. The World Wide Web took over and became the ultimate information super highway. Informationists wrote countless articles describing the history and background of techno music, the places to see and hear it, and the general history of techno music and the culture that grew up around it. This history is vital to understanding the current state of the art.
