About
Industrial techno is a subgenre of techno music that combines the repetitive, driving rhythms of techno with the harsh textures, distorted sounds, and bleak atmosphere of industrial music.
History
Industrial techno emerged in the early 1990s as producers began to fuse elements of industrial music with the burgeoning techno sound. It drew inspiration from earlier electronic body music (EBM) and industrial acts, incorporating their aggression and sonic experimentation into the techno framework. Key artists and labels helped to define the genre, pushing its boundaries and solidifying its distinct identity within the electronic music landscape.
