For communication. Higher or more advanced lifeforms need to be able to communicate with each other and other species for a wide range of activities - mating, feeding, territory, dominance. Sound is just one way of communicating. Creatures that don't use sound, like plants, haven't discovered any evolutionary benefit to using sound.

Does techno music affect animals?

this question is very indirect, but here are some brief suggestions. techno music represents sound waves, which affect all matter in calculable ways. animals consist of matter, so yes; it does affect animals. If you mean behaviorally, the electrical transduction of neurons by sound affects the behavior of neural processes which, under the brain-body paradigm, must affect their observable behaviors directly; you need to know what to look for though. As humans are animals, one conscious effect of techno music, or indeed any music, that you may have noticed might be moving themselves to the beat. This is one commonly observable affect of techno music on humans. I don't know if there are any other animals that dance to music.
