SIMPLY PUT, TECHNO IS ELECTRONIC DANCE MUSIC MIXED WITH BEATS MATCHED FOR THE PURPOSE OF MULTI-MEDIA ENTERTAINMENT & DANCING. FIRST PLAYED NOT AS HOUSE OR DISCO AT THE STARCK CLUB IN DALLAS TEXAS IN 1985,(not Detroit although Detroit had a big hand in its development)AFTER ITS FIRST ECSTASY RAID, MAKING R.A.V.E. AN OFFICIAL SUB-CULTURE BY NECESSITY. RANDOM-ESOTERIC(or extreme)-VARIETY-of-EQUALS ,i.e. r.a.v.e. many people who were not around in the beginning really stress about the confusion of techno being a sub-genre, or an entire group of musics.
1. Techno as a variety of dance music described as more hardcore and faster paced than most varieties. It can be a break-beat or rapid four four beats, if not a mix of the two. Techno arose from late 80's industrial music mixed with disco, as well as scene music. Techno is commonly played on two Technics 1200 turntables simultaneously leaving behind the house genre for a more big beat sound utilizing sampled and synthesized sounds sequenced with & using every available resource to artists for a high energy product. Some containing many radiation sirens and a standard beat measures of usually 135-170 beats per minute, including a hook,2 breakdowns, and 4 choruses with two or more empty or dry breaks of rhythmless, yet expressive, even vocal modalities surrounded by easily mixable beat patches. no two techno records (aside from those having the same song by the same label) are recorded at the exact same rate or bpm, requiring skill from a dj for smooth or seamless mixing. Some tracks even are recorded with bonus parallel tracks looped inside the grooves cut into the vinyl where the textures are rough.
2. An over view term describing a whole host of electronic dance music encompassing all others(incorrectly & commonly referred to as electronica), and ironically techno itself as one of those varieties including: all forms of House(hard,tech,gay,freedom,etc), all forms of Trance, Jungle, Drum-n-Bass,Techno, Chill, Trip-Hop, Down tempo, Tech, Break-beat, Industrial, etc... This music encompasses all beat varieties from four on the floor to off-sets.
THERE ARE MANY DESCRIPTIONS OF MANY VARIETIES OF PEOPLE'S OPINIONS OF WHAT TECHNO IS. TRUST A KNOWN DJ, PROMOTER, AND OLD SCHOOL RAVER. ACTUAL TECHNO IS QUITE RARE AND ADDICTIVE TO THE EAR OF ANY AUDIOPHILE.

Some ravers only like techno music. They just wont tolerate house, or trance.
Techno music was the staple at old school UNDERGROUND pay parties after ecstasy was made illegal.
We all felt like one "family" when the vibe was kickin' at that R.A.V.E. where they played techno music all night.

Wide-ranging genre of music originating from the late 80's and includes everything from happy hardcore to industrial to breakbeat. Techno does not "suck dick" as many here say. In fact what many people say is much better music (rap and metal, for instance) would not exist in the same form they do now if it was not for the fact that techno was invented, and all the techno-influenced instruments that followed.
Techno is often misconstrued purely as the degenerate "doof-doof" garbage put out by producers during the mid-90's. In actual fact, most decent techno, and its more lyrical offshoot EBM has many variations during a song and a set theme. Just most of you assholes are too up yourselves to hear any of it.
Also, whoever says Moby is techno because their master Eminem happens to say so needs to get a slap. Moby is in fact, electronica, which is completely different.
*catches breath*

A genre of music which is primarily listened to by disgruntled nerds whos' only friends are anime charicters. To the socially competent, 'techno' is a perfectly acceptable term to describe what these nerds call 'electronic music.' Electronic music is a bit of misnomer considering that it's not really music.
However, if you attempt to use the word in that manner you will face the onslaught of a million angry nerds screaming, 'HOW DARE YOU, YOU IGNORAMUS! YOU HAVE MISCATAGORIZED ONE OF THE 92 DIFFERENT SUBGENRES OF ELECTRONIC MUSIC!.'
These nerds, due to their untreated OCD, enjoy spending their time classifying every possible 'song' into one of infinite subgenres. This attempt is futile because all techno sounds the same.
Techno nerds are tremendous elitists and enjoy laughing at what they see as the 'ignorant masses.' However, on the inside they are so, so, lonely and cry themselves to sleep every night after masturbating to sailor moon hentai.
Techno takes absolutely no musical talent to produce and it all sounds pretty much the same. With GarageBand and a keyboard you can make techno that's up to par with virtually all 'electronic music.' If you've heard one 'song' you've pretty much heard it all.
The biggest perceived enemy of techno nerds is rap music. They rant constantly about how 'rap is crap,' and how SEORIUSLY GAIZ RAP IS JUST ELECTRONIC MUSIC BUT WIT BLACK PEOPLEZ TALKIKNG.' What they don't realize, however, is that rap is about the rythmic and lyrical talent of the rapper, not the background music. If rap fans wanted to listen to some shitty 4/4 beat isolated by itself, they would listen to techno.
In conclusion, techno sucks monkey nuts. You would be better off listening to any other genre of music. If a techno nerd either rants to you about how you are an ignorant fool or even tries to get you to listen to techno, punch him in the face.

Eminem is NOT from Detroit. He only said that so he could make more money off his rap CDs, and ironically, today's rap music uses a mutilated version of techno for the background music.
Not many people like techno thanks to the vast majority of songs out there that give the genre a bad name.
