PRINCE OF JUMPSTYLE

Funk automotivo is a Brazilian club- and street-oriented strain of funk built for massive car sound systems (aparelhagens) and roadside parties. It emphasizes catchy, repetitive synth riffs, a relentless four‑on‑the‑floor kick, and bass designed to shake trunks and doors.

Jumptek is a Belgian hard-dance offshoot that fuses the bouncy, syncopated feel of jumpstyle with the punch and drive of tek/hardstyle club production.

Tekno (often spelled with a “k”) is a fast, raw, 4/4 underground dance style born from the European free party movement. It emphasizes pounding kick drums, looping minimal motifs, and improvised, hardware-driven live sets meant for large, DIY sound systems.
