There's a start, a finish, and generally a snare on the 3rd beat.

This kinda music is all about building tension and fulfilling promises, basically. Most EDM seems to be that way. In fact, most music in general is that way, maybe less about the tension in more mainstream genres (pop, rock, etc). Breakdowns, buildups, and drops.. that's what you need to be researching.

I most certainly did not. Read:
