Originally posted by high elmo ok so there is a connection between classical and edm. of course, they dont sound the same. but it's an evolution, with new tools and equipment, the music sounds different. but, the same thinking goes into making both. opinions?

but not all "classical" sounds the same, and not all of edm sounds the same either. some of the edm stuff today is crap, but so is a lot of "classical" too that never gets played.

a lot of the contemporary "classical" since the 1960s to this day gets made with pretty much the same tools and equipment as edm. electronic music started off as "classical". i would say the connection is primarily with classical dance music. read that other thread i posted for more info.
