Retechno Events Tonight in Amsterdam

About Retechno

Contemporary R&B, which emerged from the rhythm and blues of the 1940s, is a sophisticated genre that blends elements of soul, funk, hip-hop, and pop music. It is primarily defined by polished, high-fidelity production, a strong focus on melismatic vocal performances, and a rhythmic foundation typically built on syncopated drum machine patterns or smooth, deep basslines. Instrumentation often includes a versatile mix of synthesizers, acoustic piano, and soulful brass sections, creating a mood that is both sensual and emotionally evocative. Sitting at the intersection of urban grooves and traditional gospel-infused melody, the genre maintains its dominant position in the mainstream through highly relatable themes and accessible, danceable tempos.

Also known as: Rhythm and Blues, Rhythm & Blues, RnB
