Especially common in techno, an unaccented 4/4 time pattern in which each beat is marked with a heavy kick drum. This is desperately boring at normal volume but at club levels takes over your entire body. Usually sourced from a Roland 909.

Four to the floor is a common beat pattern usually found in House music. Its a drum beat accompanied by a heavy base line, and maybe a looped sample of jazz, funk, or disco usually..The basic backbone of most dance music.

refers to two things, in my experience.
1. a rhythm pattern where the percussive bass takes place on every downbeat. Common in house, trance, other forms of techno, disco, etc.
it is the opposite of a breakbeat, where the percussive bass can be anywhere, but is normally not on beats 2 and 4, and rarely on 3.
2. refers to a 4 speed transmittion with the shifter on the floor (as opposed to the dash or the column)

1. I dig that four-on-the-floor beat; it goes well with the bassline.
2. John wrecked the four-on-the-floor transmittion in his car by going 80 MPH and then quickly shifting into reverse.

1) A strong 4/4 beat pattern used in techno music: i.e. "untz untz untz".
2) So incredibly, astoundingly drunk that you can scarcely stand up - that is to say, all four of your limbs are going to remain on the floor until you throw up or pass out .

n. Indicates that a car has a four-speed transmission, where the shifter is "on the floor" rather than on the steering column.

Kiera went to a party last night where they played. Four on the floor. She said it was fun but she was exhausted when it was all over and she had to shower. 3 Jotimes to get the 'girl quim'out of her hair!
