Bouncy Techno

Bouncy techno is a form of Happy Hardcore that first emerged as an accessible form of Gabber. It is characterized by having an average tempo of 160 to 180 BPM, four-on-the-floor beats, melodic and repetitive synth melodies, drums with hard kicks (but not as hard as the gabber bass), short breaks, progressive stomping rhythms and offbeat notes, which are responsible for giving a bouncy feeling to the music. It's usually instrumental, but the usage of short, repetitive vocal samples is also common.
