I'm skeptical about what the award really means, because being the Grammy, it'll probably go to some EDM producer who's remixed a commerical artists track, kinda like Deep Dish or Hex Hector. And while i don't want to take away from their achievements, i think it's just a bloated award that really won't represent the very best of the EDM scene.
Also, i wonder just what impact the grammy acceptance of EDM as a category will have on the further commercialization of the scene, now that it's going to recieve it's own nominations. I guess only time will tell... |

| They also have a grammy for best album mixed in 5.1 surround now don't they? Unless that's something else.. but anyways, can anyone say BT's Monster Scores!?!? :) |

But who ever said the grammys were not cutting edge? Not i!

| This will undeniably bring EDM closer to the commercial realm. If by any chance, a time slot was appointed to an EDM artist to showcase a nominated song...that could help catapault this genre into pop status like that one little 5 minute performance Rickymartin did that time. |

Lately I've been hearing tons of Trance commercially that is...
To bring back the Z103 from awhile back, now they're playing Tiesto, Oceanlab, Ferry, BT, AvB, Above & Beyond.. And these type of tracks are dropped just as much as an average Britney track would get on air-time. I'm not arguing with it though, it's actually better than ever now. |
