Ghetto funk is a mid‑tempo, breakbeat-driven style that fuses classic funk, soul, and disco samples with modern bass music sound design. It typically sits around 100–112 BPM and pairs swinging drum breaks with chunky, wobbling basslines and hip‑hop style vocal chops. Emerging from the UK’s breaks and nu‑funk scenes, the genre celebrates crate‑digging aesthetics—horn stabs, guitar licks, talkbox hooks—while using contemporary production tools like aggressive saturation, multiband compression, and LFO‑modulated bass. The result is party‑ready, DJ‑friendly tracks that feel both retro and fresh: the attitude of hip hop, the groove of funk, and the weight of modern bass music.

Glitch hop EDM is a bass-heavy, midtempo offshoot of glitch and hip-hop that adopts the large-scale sound design, drops, and festival-ready structures of contemporary EDM. It typically runs around 90–115 BPM with a swung or syncopated hip-hop groove, while employing stutter edits, tape stops, bitcrushing, buffer repeats, granular chops, and intricate automation to create the characteristic "glitched" feel. Tracks often feature thick, modulated basslines; punchy, off-kilter drums; chopped vocals and foley; and harmonies that borrow from jazz, funk, and soul, all arranged in EDM-style buildups and drops.

Makina (often stylized as Mákina) is a Spanish strain of hardcore techno rooted in the Catalan‑speaking regions (Catalonia, Valencia, the Balearic Islands). It couples the drive of 4/4 techno with the euphoria of Eurodance and hard trance, yielding rapid tempos (typically 150–180 BPM), bright supersaw or hoover leads, big breakdowns, and hands‑in‑the‑air vocal hooks. Closely related to UK hardcore and bouncy techno, Makina favors a lighter, more melodic, and highly anthemic approach than continental gabber, but retains the same relentless energy. Early Spanish techno in the early 1990s—shaped by New Beat and EBM aesthetics—provided the chassis, while Eurodance choruses and hard‑trance riffs gave the style its signature uplift and festival‑scale emotion.
