Genre Atlas
Every tempo has its neighbours.
The Genre Atlas maps 45 styles of electronic music by tempo, family and character. It shows typical drum patterns, signature sounds and moods — and where styles overlap: the BPM bridges a set travels across from house to techno or from halftime to drum & bass. Every entry leads straight into the Loop Generator.
