One of the electronic branches. When the computer gradually became an auxiliary tool for music production, the traditional method of creating electronic music was eclipsed by similar methods, and this multi-color sound quickly expanded, so the style of the clicks+cuts was unexpectedly born in the late 199s.

musicians are no longer limited by the order of percussion instruments, synthesizers and demos, but can create any sound imaginable, including the bizarre field of digital electronic pulses, which may be quickly developed by the younger generation. They can record the whole album with only one computer and suitable software in the bedroom.

second, one of the branches of IDM

electronic sound. The term "intelligent dance music" came into being to distinguish the electronic music in the 199s. Later, it developed from the inside of the dance floor to the outside, and became a kind of music that was comfortable to listen to in the living room at home.

v. drum &; Bass
