Dub techno is a subgenre of electronic music that combines elements of dub music and techno. Originating in the early 1990s, it features deep, atmospheric sounds, repetitive beats, and heavy use of reverb and delay effects. This creates a spacious, immersive listening experience that often evokes a sense of tranquility. The genre is characterized by its slow tempo and minimalistic approach, focusing on rhythm and texture rather than melody. Artists like Basic Channel and Deepchord are known for their contributions to dub techno, helping to shape its distinctive sound and influence other electronic music styles.
