Although the EDM community doesn’t always share the same opinion, the moments of similarity outweigh all of those issues. It is truly amazing how our community comes together in just the right moments.
Last night I went back to College Night at Cowboys Dancehall in Arlington and it was a great experience. I hadn’t gone in months because all they played was rap, and that’s fine, but I don’t want to dance to rap. The overall crowd had gotten simply “Ratchet”, I didn’t feel like it was somewhere I could dance and just enjoy the music anymore. Now Cowboys is no longer sponsored by Dallas Entourage on College Nights and the difference is amazing. There was rap, trap, progressive house, and EDM classics. When “Better Off Alone” by Alice Deejay started playing the energy of the entire club rose in unison. Our community is awesome because we all share the love of EDM as a whole. Remember PLUR is key.

Always looking for new tracks
Sometimes it seems like music in the EDM scene is slim pickins. You’ve got your big progressive house, electro, dubstep and trap artists like Zedd, Steve Aoki, DJ Snake, etc. but when you’ve heard everything these guys have to offer at this point then what are you supposed to do? Don’t get me wrong I love all the big artists, but I’m an EDM junkie that’s on a daily search for something new. That’s why I’m starting a site for new artists to be discovered.
Music is subjective to the listener….
And this definitely holds true to EDM. I’m a part of an EDM group on Facebook and everyone is always arguing over what a genre is. Let’s all agree to disagree that the genre of EDM lies in the ears of the listener.
