Genres
Cyberpunk
Cyberpunk is an electronically driven music style that evokes neon-lit, high-tech dystopias through gritty sound design, machine-like grooves, and noir atmospheres. It blends elements of industrial, EBM, synth-pop, darkwave, and techno to create a futurist, urban mood grounded in rhythm and texture. Typical palettes include distorted drum machines, FM and wavetable synths, granular and glitch processing, metallic percussion, vocoders, and brooding pads, often punctuated by sampled city noise or radio chatter. Tempos commonly range from 100–140 BPM, alternating between four-on-the-floor EBM propulsion and broken, breakbeat-based momentum. Lyrically and conceptually, cyberpunk deals with surveillance, megacorporations, hacking, bio-modification, urban decay, and resistance—placing human emotion against cold, mechanized backdrops.

Soundtrack
Soundtrack is music created to accompany and enhance visual media such as film, television, and video games. It includes original scores (instrumental or vocal music composed specifically for the picture) and, at times, curated compilations of pre-existing songs. Stylistically, soundtrack is a meta-genre that can encompass orchestral symphonic writing, jazz, electronic and synth-driven textures, choral forces, popular song, and experimental sound design. Its defining trait is functional storytelling: themes, motifs, harmony, rhythm, and timbre are shaped by narrative needs, character psychology, pacing, and editing. Common features include leitmotifs for characters or ideas, modular cues that can be edited to picture, dynamic orchestration for dramatic range, and production approaches that sit well under dialogue and sound effects. Because it must synchronize to picture, soundtrack often uses clear dramatic arcs, tempo maps, and hit points.

Electronic
Electronic is a broad umbrella genre defined by the primary use of electronically generated or electronically processed sound. It encompasses music made with synthesizers, drum machines, samplers, computers, and studio/tape techniques, as well as electroacoustic manipulation of recorded or synthetic sources. The genre ranges from academic and experimental traditions to popular and dance-oriented forms. While its sonic palette is rooted in electricity and circuitry, its aesthetics span minimal and textural explorations, structured song forms, and beat-driven club permutations. Electronic emphasizes sound design, timbre, and studio-as-instrument practices as much as melody and harmony.
