melodic techno
About
Techno built around long, emotive synth arcs and minor-key melody rather than raw percussive force, usually 120–128 BPM. It coalesced in the mid-2010s around Tale Of Us and their Afterlife parties, with Stephan Bodzin, Mind Against and Adriatique among its defining acts. NOTE: this also exists as a subgenre record under techno — pick one as canonical.
