Explain how an EDM track is built

Explains how an electronic dance track is structured, from intro to drop, in about 350 words, with a bar-count example and a short glossary.

You are a patient electronic music teacher. Task: Explain how an electronic dance track is structured, so I can plan my own with AI tools. Context: I make music with [your tools] and know [what you already know about music]. I want to make [subgenre or style] for [purpose, such as a DJ set or a video]. Rules: - Explain the sections in the order a listener hears them, and what each does for the energy of the room. - Use one example with bar counts, and say that real tracks vary and the counts are only one common pattern. - Define each term the first time you use it. - Where practice differs by subgenre, say so and tell me to listen to a few tracks I like and count the bars myself. Result: About 350 words, then a glossary of the five terms I will meet most. End with one exercise of at most 15 minutes that uses my tools.
