Techno and deep house are cousins, not twins. They share roots in electronic dance music, but they pull the night in different directions.

Techno is usually faster, harder and more mechanical — driving four-on-the-floor kicks, hypnotic loops and an industrial edge. It is the sound of the warehouse at 3am: relentless, physical and a little futuristic.

Deep house is warmer and more soulful. It sits a touch slower, leans on rolling basslines, lush chords and a groove you feel more than you hear. Where techno pushes, deep house sways.

On OrinBeat you don't have to choose one or the other. The OrinBeat channel weaves both together so the stream rises and falls with the night. Tune in and let it run.
