No - I think you will find a lot of their songs are very euro-techno in style.
Notice I mentioned '2 unlimited', and in the uk in the early 90's that genre of music was known as euro-techno.
Look at the similarities with 'bands' such as Cappella, masterboy, magic affair etc. The music is basically a female singer with a melodic, pretty voice, accompanied by a rapper with fast electronic dance music. I think that sums up Move pretty well personally.
Sure, some of Move's tunes are slower, but that's not really what they're known for is it?
The fact is a sound that is associated with a particular genre, may be called something else as the years go on. Trance for example has nothing to do with what it was originally about, and sounds totally different, yet it is still called trance.
Move sound like lots of early euro-techno acts, so it's an apt description really.
