The groove is easy to follow all the way through the production, which is full of electronic sounds.
The song’s beat is one of the strongest. The strong bass, punchy percussion and steady electronic beat provide a lot of weight and keeps everything moving. The synths add an extra dimension to the production, and they don’t overpower the main groove.

The chorus has a sweet and catchy element in it too, as it sticks with you after you finish playing the song. The vocals and beat lend “On the Beat” a fun, dance-worthy vibe, which doesn’t sound that complicated.
The layout also helps to keep things fun. The variations in rhythm, breakdowns and drops create room to create energy in the song before it returns to the beat. It sounds like it’s intended for movement, be it dancing along from home or through a club sound system.
