New Beat
New Beat is a pioneering Belgian electronic dance music genre from the late 1980s, known for its slow-tempo acid house grooves and EBM influences. Its hypnotic basslines, industrial textures and creative sampling techniques forged a dark, immersive club atmosphere. Born in the underground rave scene, New Beat laid the groundwork for acid techno, rave and modern industrial dance. Today its nostalgic yet forward-looking sound continues to inspire DJs, producers and fans of cutting-edge electronic music.
