Psychedelic trance has a distinctive, energetic sound that tends to be faster than other forms of trance or techno music with tempos generally ranging from 125 to 150 BPM. It uses a very distinctive [[bass (sound)|bass]] beat that pounds constantly throughout the song and overlays the bass with varying rhythms drawn from [[funk music|funk]], [[techno]], [[dance music|dance]], [[acid house]], [[eurodance]] and [[trance music|trance]] using drums and other instruments. The different leads, rhythms and beats generally change every eight [[Bar (music)|bars]].<ref>[http://www.moodbook.com/music/trance.html Trance music.

New layers will continue to be added until a climax is reached, and then the song will break down and start a new rhythmic pattern over the constant bass line. Psychedelic trance tracks tend to be six to ten minutes long. This includes a developed and atmospheric introduction, and a breakdown in the middle of the track of around 30 seconds to over a minute.<ref>Easwaran, Kenny.
