the video would be 10000x better if he used dark progressive instead of anthem trance.

I mostly couldn't tell which samples were supposed to represent which period, as it all sounded just terrible.

Which makes the representation of 1999 to 2002 a bit misleading, really. There was plenty of anthem cheese going around, but the prog reaction against it (if it was one) was just as strong.

Crappy examples used. Comparing cheese of today with cheese of yesteryear
The vocal trance at the start of the millenium was as much pop music as any of the big time EDM tracks of today
BTW, I'm sure this has been noticed already, but I find the new stuff being used in this video sounds like hardstyle pitched down

The main attraction of these modern festivals is the DJ, rather than the music. Idolatry at its finest.

Yeah, that too. Especially the big lights reading "AOKI" and the like. Good stuff.

I think the dude was simply trying to compare the EDM that was most likely prominent and similar to the stuff you hear today as the closest examples to look at.
It would probably be really hard to relate if it was something way more underground like Prog-Psy, darkpsy, ambient, or acid stuff.
Side by side though you could tell that even the cheese of the past was better.
