How to Make Techno Music

Techno is a type of electronic dance music that originated in Detroit, Michigan in the United States during the mid-to-late 1980s. The first techno tracks were produced by Juan Atkins, Derrick May, and Kevin Saunderson, who are often referred to as the ” Belleville Three”. Techno is generally repetitive instrumental music produced for use in a continuous DJ set. The central rhythmic component is most often in common time (4/4), where time is marked with a bass drum on each quarter note pulse, with sub-bass synthesizers providing basslines that typically emphasize the kick drum, creating a straight four on the floor beat.
