Originally posted by Ishkur There's no such thing as EDM. EDM as a label was invented by you turkeys about 8 or 9 years ago because what you were listening to couldn't honestly be called trance music anymore, which was perfect because as a meaningless term it encapsulates everything and nothing, thus can be defined any way you want to describe the music you like versus the music you don't like. Seriously now. With production standards today, there isn't a single song on the radio that can't be strictly defined as EDM right now. Britney. Justin. Beyonce. Rihanna. Missy Elliot. Nelly Fertado. Lil Jon. Timbaland. It's electronically produced, and people dance to it. Voila: EDM. But that's not what you were getting at, was it. Don't speak for the original poster. He knows what he meant, and I called him on it.

By using the term "EDM", I'm 99% sure he meant music with a 4/4 beat, such as house, techno, trance and everything in between, like most people do.
