Current Electronic Music Scene - Good/Bad?

Hey all, I'm the new contributor for the House Music Blog of TheFreshpage and I want to get your opinion on whether you are happy with the current electronic music scene. I have seen it change from an underground scene to a rave scene to a new dj club scene, and would love to hear some feedback. Would you like to see it change? How would you change it? Here is my blog post!

If I could change it I'd make it more accessible, so basically anyone with a computer could get involved.

...

Oh, wait... dammit.

Make sure you check out other boards for your blog because you're gonna get mostly negative comments here. Maybe some trance.nu to balance it out.

That's a very broad topic to try and cover. Some parts of it are good, some parts aren't. There's a budding dubstep scene, a shit trance scene, a steady tech house scene, a changing techno scene. Pick one, and even then it can get hairy.

I believe some EDM artist went way 2 commercial while other kept producing a more underground sound, IMO edm is splitting 2 dinstinct scene.

This thread is going to become a barrage of people trying to argue that their opinions are the only opinion that is right. There will also people arguing over "genres", many references to the DJ Mag poll, accessibility and selling-out for pop music.

Great.

Quite simply, if you think its good, then fair play. If you think its bad, then dig deeper for stuff you like.

Are you basing this on Vancouver's scene, or other ones abroad. Because Vancouver doesn't really have much of a nightlife compared to, say, Montreal or Ibiza. What I have noticed, though, is Vancouver seems to latch onto trends a year or two after they've worn out their welcome in other parts of the world. I guess that's the price we pay for being at the end of the Earth, eh?
