techno beat
Synthetic dance pulse
A techno beat is the driving, repetitive rhythmic pattern characteristic of techno music—typically a steady four-on-the-floor kick drum at 120-150 beats per minute, often layered with synthesized percussion.
The term can describe both the specific drum pattern and the pulsing energy it creates: The techno beat kept the crowd moving until sunrise.
