Acid breaks is a breakbeat-oriented dance music style that fuses the squelchy, resonant basslines and filter sweeps of acid house with syncopated breakbeats. It typically runs between 130–140 BPM, favors crunchy drum breaks over four-on-the-floor kicks, and foregrounds TB-303-style patterns that twist and evolve with accent, slide, and resonance. The result is a kinetic, club-ready sound that is at once funky and psychedelic—equally suited to dark warehouse floors and sunlit festival stages.

Acid techno is a harder, more driving offshoot of acid house that blends the squelching lines of the Roland TB-303 with the pounding rhythms and industrial edge of 1990s techno. It favors relentless 4/4 kicks, hypnotic 16th‑note bass patterns with accent and slide, and aggressive resonance sweeps that create a distinctive, corrosive timbre. Emerging largely from the UK free-party and squat-rave scenes, acid techno emphasizes raw energy, immediacy, and live hardware performance. Compared with acid house, it is faster, tougher, and more percussive; compared with mainstream techno, it leans heavily on the 303 as the central hook and motif. Typical tempos range from about 135 to 150 BPM, with arrangements built for long, tension-and-release transitions, filter rides, and layered drum machine grooves tailored to large, physically immersive sound systems.
