All Techno Subgenres (With Examples)

[@diarhajrizi1498]

I appreciate the hard work mate but there's a lot of ways in which this video could have been better. It seems like it was made by somebody with superficial knowledge on electronic music genres. My main issues: 1. The lack of musical characteristics mentioned: most of the descriptions were very general and poetic, they look like they were made by ChatGPT. They do not include any information about the MUSICAL characteristics of the genre, e.g., the 303 machine was not mentioned in acid techno (the main characteristic of it!); rumble kick/bass wasn't mentioned in Hard Techno; etc. 2. It's missing many important subgenres like Schranz, Hardgroove, Reverse bass, etc. You could even add Hardcore, as the Hard Techno in the 2020s very much resembles it. 3. There was no mention of overlapping of genres. For example, 2/4 of the hard techno examples were hard acid techno tracks. That can be confusing for some people who may think "acid techno" and "hard techno" are mutually exclusive. It would be good to note that these genres very often overlap. For example, Sonder by Brecc is a hard industrial acid techno song. 4. The examples were a bit off. Children is a trance song, not a tech-trance song; the Tech House tracks sound mainly house; and some others. Still, thank you for the video.

[@zawiej6085]

I just started watching this material and You have a good point here. As someone that knows this and that about techno is hard to learn anything from poetic describtions and I think people with 0 knowledge of the genre are not particulary interested in content like that, but maybe some newbie will come across this and get hooked so I won't take that from author. After seeing first part about detroit I think would be good to show some modern examples, how it evolved.

[@zawiej6085]

Children is dream house track as definition of this genre, better old school techtrance example would be Cj Bolland - Prophet and even that wouldn't be perfect as someone could said that back then it was just techno as this 2 genres were closer to each other, tech trance and tech house sections are badly represented here.

[@shfunky]

Agreed. You could randomly choose one of these descriptions, assign it to random genre and they would still fit. Very generic.

[@acident7]

I think this video is great for the average listener. Your first point is more for producers. Your second point is more for audiophiles and arthistorians. Your third point conflicts with the 4th point because genre can often be very subjective and you should let a dj decide where he would place a track. Let people start and chose which direction they lean towards.

[@diarhajrizi1498]

@@acident7 this video is *sufficient* for the average listener, not great. My first and second points are not for niche sub-groups of professionals, they are for music fans in general. How would you expect a person to identify what acid techno is if there is no mention of the 303 sound? What if I'm a viewer who likes the booming kicks of hard techno (as opposed to other softer versions of techno) but doesn't know how to refer to it? Music knowledge is important for most people-- those who do not care about it can simply ignore the information. And, my third and fourth points are not contradictory because genres are not subjective. They are vague and man-made, yes, but they are based on some somewhat-objective and unique characteristics of the sound (bpm, drum pattern, velocity, instruments used, the presence of vocals or not, etc.). In point three, there is an overlap between three subgenres (hard, acid and industrial) but point 4 is just a trance song, with no overlaps with techno (if anything, it overlaps with house, as dream trance & dream house are interchangeable).

I'm afraid most of your sub-genres are incorrect. Many tracks mentioned here are just Pop, Disco, Italo or simply just Trance. It is possible that you are presenting this from a USA point of view, which is completely incorrect. Even though the genre originates from Detroit, most sub-genres originate from Europe. That is why in Europe genres are more focused on the specific musical elements than overal vibe. Like the fact that Tech House has Swing, Hard Techno is fast and over modulated and Trance Techno (Melodic Techno) is just Trance with a typical Tech drive instead of the normal basic disco drive. And finally you seem to have missed one of the most important sub-genre of Techno ever......TRIBAL-TECH and TRIBAL-TECH TRANS. Also called TT or just TTT, which basically accounts for at least 65% of all modern techno tracks.

Acid-House, Acid-Trance and Acid-Techno are all subgenres... even Acid-Jazz exist! For me, in the beginning was HOUSE, from Chicago, started in 1985,86.. It was like a big tree with many branches. All genres growing out of this tree...and the thickest branch of all was the Techno branch.... Acid/ Electro/ Techno/Trance/ and other electronic genres like Drumn Bass, Jungle, Breakbeat, Breakdance was in the 80's in the hip hop-scene... Don' t forget Chill-Out and Ambient. All European countries had their own scene... Drumn Bass was very populated in the UK, the Belgians had their New Wave, Electric Boogie early scene in the 80's.. There was a sound of Berlin, of Frankfurt, for example, and of Detroit... Watch, the interview of the famous DJ Sven Väth, , he gives us a small overview over the electronic scene and their beginnings...Musical pioneers. in germany were the Electronic Group " Kraftwerk" or "Tangerine Dream"...you can see it wasn't house alone, in Germany we had our roots, also... And one word to MINIMAL.. Minimal alone don't stand for genre, Its a definition for a soundproperty, many young kids who listen to nowadays techno, don't understand this..There is Minimal-Techno of course..but Minimal don't stand for itself..its a definition of a sound... and SCHRANZ is a fashion-word😊, its no style..Chris Liebing used this word one day, because the techno in his club was so heavy and crashing...its Techno !!

the thing is. most of the examples are from the last decade and that's already a crossover blend with multiple genres. And back in the days "Innercity - Big fun" was a commercial house tune and no way accepted as a Detroit techno tune. its only produced by Derick May under a different alias. And the Acid techno examples are Peaktime techno blends from a couple of years ago. Huge kicks, rumble bass and a 303 on top. the real acid techno is more like tunes: Stacker- humanoid, Josh Wink - higher state of consciousness. and have a more trippy vibe. and so on with the rest of the genres. nowadays its just a big blend of styles. but u can recognize them by listening tunes in those subgenres between 1989 till 2000

Contrary to many other commenters here, this video gives a pretty good breakdown of some of the Techno genres. I first heard Techno music after arriving in Goa in early Dec. 1991 after spending the previous five and half months traveling all around India with my girflriend of the time, Sandra Grulli. (Including our 1 month in Goa, we spent 6 and half months riding 16,000 kms on an LML Vespa, plus train hops, through the National Capital Territory(Delhi), Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujurat, Madyha Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala and Goa. The techno parties in Goa in Dec. 1991 were superb. From 1992 to 1997 I organised some great house and warehouse techno parties in Melbourne, Australia with 100 to 1200 guests. We attended the very first Earthcore Party that was held in early 1992 in Toolangi State Forest. There were only 150 people there. It was organised by Spiros Boursinos (R.I.P.) and Pip Darvall. Anyway, my favourite tracks from the list on this video are: (1) "Children" by Robert Miles (2) "The Acid" (T78 Remix) by "A*S*Y*S. BTW, you don't need to be on drugs to enjoy Techno music.

I've only been getting into techno relatively recently which youtube has helped a lot with. So far my favourite sub genres comprise of mixes of acid, hard, industrial, dark, house and trance. I gradually drifted towards techno from my love of acid jazz, lo fi hip hop, synthwave, edm, house, melodic rock, pop rock, grunge and metal. Quite a mix huh but I think techno incorporates essences of all those genres and gives it such energy or chill vibes, that's what draws me to it! I also love 70s, 80s pop/motown and 90s ballads 😂

I've been listening to Techno for years yet don't know much of it, but you didn't put what makes Acid Techno Acid Techno. It's the Ronald 303 that makes it Acid, not because it sounds trippy or what. The first example don't even sound like a 303...

[@luty1781]

What about Techno Peak Time, Melodic Techno, Techno Raw/Hypnotic, Dark Techno, etc?

[@czerwonejakmleko401]

good shit dude, thx for this

[@RaveGate]

You're most welcome man! Thanks for the support.

[@Kozmonaut86]

what abut Drak techno, EBM artis like Ancient Methods, Perc, Orphx, Makaton, AdamX, Phase Fatale.NX1, Ontal .

[@iham1313]

good selection but would consider them just "techno", some closer to "industrial" - as there is no "bright" techno, what should "dark" techno be?

[@narfuzs]

bro, you got all wrong... Deadmau5 - Strobe (Lane 8 Remix) for example it's a classic Progressive House tune. I don't want to even mention the other "genres" that you told in the video. Search more about it, this is ofenssive!!!

[@ezy.doesit]

dude - deadmau5 was never real progressive house on the same level as sasha, digweed, cattaneo. listen to Sasha - Mongoose : this is an actual classic! thank me later AT the time commercial labels were trying to hijack and profit from the good moment real progressive house was having, the oldest trick in the book from this industry

[@Jonezy_YT]

I like house music , does anyone know what sub genres j should dip my toes into next ?

[@RaveGate]

My new video is about house music, make sure to check it out! Make a comment under that video and I'll help you out finding a genre that you like!

[@xCoZz1]

just found you,nice btw insutrial techno was played on the animated series of samuri jack,there is an episode wich he's forced to rave with this type of techno

[@wwithyouinsun]

Octave One - Blackwater is a very nice House song, not minimal techno 😭

[@ar7ickrionio72]

I wonder in which genre are victor ruiz, 6ejou, raxeller, anna

[@marcjacobscontinued9411]

Very clear, helpful and clean presentation. Thank you very much. Great upload I think. Subbed. Hope you will continue to upload loads of techno-tracks and information. Cheers.

[@RaveGate]

Thank you so much! The next video that I'm currently working on is not techno related but after that I'll have many videos that are EDM related for sure. Thanks for the sub, I hope I won't disappoint.

[@marcjacobscontinued9411]

@@RaveGateThanks. You won't. Do what you have to do, then it's always good 🙂. Lately I'm getting into old skool techno, but every music genre is good for me, as long as it's kind of funky haha. I like funky electro, techno, soul, house, disco, pop, psychedelic, psy-trance, DnB, country, rock, hiphop, alt.-rock/indie, movie-scores, classical music, soft music, metal (especially stoner), blues, jazz, afro, world, glitch, ambient and whatever. It's all good, as long as it's funky. Take care brother. Like your channel so far. Keep 'em coming!

[@RaveGate]

@@marcjacobscontinued9411 I'm exactly the same! I like all sorts of stuff. Right now I'm more focused on electronic music because I want to take my own career in this direction, and I'm still learning about it myself. But when it comes to listening to music I listen to everything. Thanks again for the support!

[@marcjacobscontinued9411]

@@RaveGate Thanks for your kind response. That's great. I hope you learn a lot and start a successful career in electronic music. If your productions in it are as good as the way you present your videos/documentaries it will be going well I think. Good luck!

[@JarovanDuren]

some good stuff but clearly lacking a lot. The examples for industrial, hard, and acid sound very similar, I would've picked something with more of a synth screech (dion, oguz, nico moreno style) for hardtech. also no mention of hardgroove?? what's up with that

[@djwolffe_OG]

How does this not have more views?

[@RaveGate]

I don't know! lol But I'm still a small channel, so maybe that's it, but I'm honestly glad that this video is doing pretty good. Thank you!

[@PhatInAHat]

Because it's fucking shite and mostly disinformation.

[@usada2000]

So you got TRANCE TECHNO (Wth is that even?) but you don't have HARDCORE TECHNO (aka Hardcore/Gabber). You don't have Schranz Techno, you don't have Swedish Techno. Cybotron - Cosmic Cars is definitely Electro (also called Electopop sometimes) and not techno, just compare it to Kraftwerk, Anthony Rother, Egyptian Lover etc... The minimal Techno examples could've been way better than using Ritchie Hawtin's music which is early 90's, more like Detroit era. The Swedish sound for some reason ended up in Industrial Techno which is not true at all. And don't even get me started about the acid part...

[@majklbee3435]

Hold your horses Bro....... You cant make a ten minute video with all subgenres and with 3 examples of TRAXs Just make a video of your definition of Techno Im not expert of Techno(im listening from 1991-my first experience was Techno Trax compilation) ,but this video wasnt so bad SUN in SOUL Man

[@artyomazarenko3570]

What's wrong with “electronica” label? It really describes electronig music in general. Some people use it to name anything clearly electronic in sound when they don’t know the exact name. It seems that the author tries to explain techno as an umbrella term as well, still thinking that house and trance genres are also “techno”.

[@DeathJoy]

oh come on..... Maddix is not a very good example of acid techno. Yes it has the post-acid techno sound, but the way he composes tracks - it is more like Peak time/Driving or Big Room techno

[@lxndrbe]

What happend to Melodic Techno, Dark Techno, Hypnotic Techno, Raw Techno, Ambient Techno, PeakTime Techno, ........

[@FreedomEugene]

You wrong for industrial techno. Hard techno have much more aggressive input, that u shown. And what about groove or hypnotic techno?

[@MrMinimalmyth]

What about Hypnotic techno? The likes of Oscar Mulero

[@abdelhakimelsaban3120]

You know what's up man, Oscar mulero is unbelievable, definitely should have been featured in this vid

[@MrMinimalmyth]

@@abdelhakimelsaban3120 100% 👌

[@RaveGate]

Honestly man, I found out that I didn't cover many subgenres shortly after publishing this video. I seriously have to do way more research for the upcoming vids 😂

[@MrMinimalmyth]

@@RaveGate Glad you're honest about it. And i got my answer. :) Good luck with future video's!

[@technocoh]

his examples of progressive techno were actually hypnotic techno

[@VooDooEf]

dub techno

[@daydayis08]

Detroit is the birthplace of Techno music

[@naruto-od8qd]

Nowadays, some people confuse Hard techno and industrial techno

[@zeninvites3209]

i always thought inner city good life was like .... rnb or something haha never knew it was classified as techno

[@patedefruits3771]

Cool de dire au auditeurs qu'il existe plein de genre de techno diverses, difficiles de définir toute les décendences, il faudra souvent passer par l 'histoire, la constitution des sons, la connaissance des labels. Sinon si tu n'as pas parcouru les bacs de disquaires, le rpm, la phylosophie du morceau, tout n'est pas inscrit certains morceaux seront dur à ranger entre la dub-techno et la house, merci Mr Techno de cet univers.

[@zore5220]

U forgot schranz :( and i guess the example for industrial is a bit lacking because modern industrial sounds different for example: (Industrial) Raxeller-Imposter Foxa-Hell Chader Bludshed-Toxic Machinery and for schranz: Max Thiemann Schranz/Hard Techno Set 18/03/2024

[@D4rk0utOfficialChannel026]

UPTEMPO?

[@Hunter_UT]

Lot of questions, lot of problems. Even for me, as Trance Producer, who was born on Scooter's music (it's mix of techno, trance, house, hardcore and whateve). Last one - there no Techno, it's already "Trance". Trance it's about composition, concrete melody, whole main idea in MELODY. No one from examples have nothing with techno, only what Trance come from Techno in 90s. Techno it's about drums, the rhythm, bassline which drives you and drive you to hypnos, techno can have a melody, but it melody like, short, repeats, not concrrete, sounds like hypnos, atmosphere, just like accompaniment drumline, to rhythm. Techno doesn't have conrete structure like Trance does (intro - bassline - breakdown - main melody showup - drop (culmination) outro bassline and outro), techno sounds like non-stop all the time. There like, was Acid Techno, but in Industrial Techno example - there Acid Techno, and they like the same, different only is there acid or not) No one will name "Acid Trance" Uplifting Trance with acid). Want exaple where Robert Miles does techno-trance? Robert Miles - Red Zone (Part 1) (1995), there something like atmospheres-hard techno, mixed even with disco-like in first part of track.

[@loganjl320]

just above 10 minutes, yep this can't possibly be horrible!

[@NoviceShelter]

Melodic techno, like Stephan Bodzin

[@RaveGate]

yes!
