Lento violento

Lento violento, sometimes shortened to simply lento, is a style of electronic dance music that developed in Italy. Its name means slow (and) violent. Lento Violento is characterized by minimal, slow-feeling rhythmic structures and aggressive sound design, not by a fixed low BPM range. It consists of a hard kick, like the ones present in hardcore or hardstyle, but played at a very slow tempo, with vocal samples and dark and acid sounds or loops.
