People are different. Some faster and others slower, some dark and others joyful. Music can sometimes be perceived as a representation of the vast and versatile realm of humans, and the emotion they feel and try to convey to others. Styles like house and techno ranges from a speed of 115 bpm to 135 bpm. As the name suggests, psytrance places a strong emphasis on psychedelic elements, and a speed much faster (150bpm) than these widespread electronic genres.
