HAPPY HARDCORE. 1990s - 2000s

Gabber - Just a very very fast Euro style dance / techno / rave genre 160-190bpm from the 1990s Netherlands - turns into Happy Hardcore ("Happy Gabber"), most of in major key and well, still huge in the Netherlands i believe.

BREAKCORE. 1990s - 2000s

Breakcore - a near completely insane version of hardcore. Almost the entire track is breakouts from a regular beat - it's sort of at the limits of techno experiments, before it would trail off into a pure experimental genre, such as 'noise'. (which is actually a genre, too).

ACID HOUSE. Late 80s - early 90s

Like most House genres of the 1980s, coming originally from Chicago, but later associated with the 'Madchester' scene (Hacienda club, etc). Random fact: The plinky sound is a Roland TB-303 synthesizer.

TECHNO. 1980s - 2010s

Techno is the basic style of club electronica as it lays down the simplest possible rhythm just 4 bass beats to the bar, then enters into long slowly changing loops - which creates forgetfulness about the passage of time.

MINIMAL TECHNO. 1970s - 2010s

Really stripped down version of Techno. Not for clubs. Some is just nothing but simple experiments in minimal sounds, while others eg Plastikman, makes up to more complete sounding pieces of music with more layering.

EARLY SYNTH. 1970s

Electro-classic instruments such as electric guitar used by Blues musicians had existed since the 30s. Many sound engineers in the late 60s and early 70s started to work with pure electronic instruments. Along with african percussion styles, folk, jazz, ska, breaks, blues, & the rules worked out classically, one of the real foundation places in music. Pretty much created the 80s.

EXPERIMENTAL. 1960s - 80s

All kinds of strange stuff left over. Experimental often means - unusual instruments, especially made out of household things. There might be little or no melodies recognisable as "music" in the normal meaning of the word. Just structured sounds. No clear boundary onto other styles.
