Electronic music, move it or lose it.  Grouped up shoulder to shoulder in a music festival or even a club, feeling the music intensify, climbing higher and higher.  You know the drop is coming you feel it. You float on a note and then BOOM! the drop. All minds are lost, bodies bounce, everyone is moving to the monster synths blasting, the grimey groans and violent screams of electricity and sound waves – there is nothing more intense.

There’s no escaping EDM (Electronic Dance Music) these days. It’s in the clubs… At the Music festivals… It’s bumping in the streets. You either hate it or love it. In the end, you just have to have a great experience at a music festival or a club, and guaranteed, you’re hooked.

Sure, it may just be the disco 0f this generation, the new big thing, and we might look back one day and think Daaayyaaam This is what we listened to? Boy were we high. But, there is something to this new age Techno. There is the presence of a human soul hidden deep within these robotic beats.

Some recognize the music from that repetitious bass. But Techno, Dubstep, Trance, House, Progressive, they might all sound the same to some people, but believe it or not, they are all very different. If you listen carefully enough, you will notice the difference. And if you know the difference, you are probably listening to it a bit too much 🙂

Like all music of a generation, music is a carbon copy, a historical imprint of the generation that created it’s music and enjoyed it. It seems like electronic music (even though its been around for a few decades now) is still in an experimental stage. Sounds are being created and discovered with the drop of each new track. Drum beats are becoming more complex, dynamic and just straight filthy 🙂

The almost Bipolar tone of dubstep and certain electronic music seems perfect for our EDM ADD generation. Many people will say that electronic dance music is “just noise,” something an older security guard lady shared with me at HARD festival, and that may be true. However, Electronic Dance Music draws from the listener a very different, a very powerful emotion – an emotion music of the past did not really tap into.  And that’s why EDM is what it is.
