* JustifiedTrope: "Techno" differentiated itself from other electronically produced music in 1980's Detroit, which pretty much _was_ an industrially driven dystopia. Explicit themes of futurism, technological advancement, corruption, industrial dehumanization and consequently dark mood are all over techno from the beginning. See 1983's "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_dgScFHHGo Industrial Lies]]" and 1985's "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5E2eg3URv6M Future]]"

If the future consists of massive computer networks, corrupt corporations/governments and augmented humans, and is dirty and grim (i.e. CyberPunk), you can bet that the music of choice will be techno, electronica, and/or industrial music. Ambient music of choice? Techno. Hanging out at the CoolestClubEver? No hip-hop, punk rock, or any dance music here, just techno.
Since techno, industrial music, and electronica require electronics (hence the name) to work, the use of such can bring a futuristic feel to it. The music is usually played to give a dystopic mood. Since cyberpunk is usually set in Dystopia, and in a technological world, this kind of music is perfect for that setting.
