About this Quiz
DJing is an art form that has evolved over the years, with different genres emerging and defining different eras and cultures. The genres of house, techno, trance, and dubstep have each left their mark on the music industry, each with their unique characteristics and origins. House music, characterized by a tempo of around 120 to 130 beats per minute and a 'four on the floor' beat, originated in Chicago in the early 1980s. Techno, known for its repetitive beats and synthesized backing tracks, originated in Detroit in the mid-to-late 1980s. Trance, with its melodic synthesizer phrases and a tempo of around 125 to 150 beats per minute, originated in Germany in the early 1990s. Dubstep, known for its heavy use of bass and sub-bass frequencies and a 'half-step' beat, originated in the UK in the late 1980s. Each genre has its unique sound and production techniques, making them distinct and recognizable.
