I couldn't agree anymore. Straight from the words of a friend a couple nights ago - 'I think I'm going to go to Sasha. Sasha is a good one right? I really want to check it out'
I think it's exciting to see more people interested in the EDM scene, it's only going to make the scene bigger and better. |

| I still fail to see the great benefits to the club goer for the music becoming more mainstream. If anything it benefits everyone else involved but the club goer. As the music is becoming more mainstream....tracks are being produced faster and faster....in hopes the producer will find a hit and reap the rewards. This means the market is being flooded with too many tracks and a lot of those being garbage tracks. Unfortunately, the mainstream market...which is larger then the "underground" market isn't as choosy about what becomes a hit and you start seeing more garbage being considered hits. Then the DJs are almost forced to play this garbage because the thats what the majority of the people want to hear and then the clubs are flooded with this garbage. Its the same problem that happened with Hip Hop. Early 90s Hip Hop was great because it wasn't in the mainstream. Now, every person who can throw a rhymn together has an album....and most of the songs are complete garbage. |

Bigger doesn't always mean better...I would suggest bigger rarely means better. |

As far as the EDM music scene goes, this has already happened. Most production comes out of Europe where EDM is mainstream. |

I agree that the EDM scene is mainstream in Europe....however, the new found glory of EDM in North America is only making the problem worse. You now have even more producers sitting in their basements making tracks and flooding the market with them.
There is a huge difference between the mainstream in Europe and the mainstream commercialization in north america. The money and the glory is found in north america....north americans will eat up whatever garbage they are told is a hit....regardless of how good it is. |

really...all those who think that pushing EDM to mainstream isnt worth it, if u still want parties to happen and those big names to come in, u need new fans....its not like people still attend parties when they have full out families etc etc...eventually the current club goer fades away from the scene...without some kind of push, it would be hard to maintain anything..
PS. come to think of it, we used to call this a scene but now its part of the music industry. deal with it. |
