I personnaly feel that the market isn't neary as huge as hip hop. With time, people will start liking edm music more. With shows like Tiesto @ Circus, and the ever popular celebration and Bal en Blanc, a lot of non-edm fans will slowlyu be exposed to the music. Unfortuneatly, our neighbours (the U.S) is dominated by hip hop/r'n'b and most pop culture trends follow to canada. Remember edm is also getting huge in the States, so i feel that better times are ahead. Eventually, Aria, Circus and other clubs will not need the their hip hop rooms to survive. No more Hip Hop @ events either (Swirl). If you want to help get rid of the hip hop room at Aria, persuade your friends to come, expose them to DJ's that will spin @ Aria, just make them hear the music. I have 2 friends that are Aria addicts after Digweed/Howells night. They didnt even like edm before. I also feel that we need a solid edm radio show in a prime time slot to also make the music bigger (ASOT?? they have it in T.O and Ottawa already). So if you want to keep flaming Armin or PVD or tiesto, accept a hip hop room @ Aria. Everyone starts somewhere, and Tiesto & AVB are good a good start.
