New Beat is a genre of electronic dance music that emerged in the late 1980s and early 1990s. It is characterized by a fast tempo (usually around 140-150 bpm), heavy use of synthesizers and drum machines, and a repetitive, hypnotic sound. The genre is heavily influenced by acid house and techno, and often incorporates samples from other genres such as hip hop and funk. It is often associated with the Belgian New Beat scene, which was popular in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
