why is America so shit with dance music? most festivals and clubs only have edm trash
They shunned dance music in the 80s as music for gays and blacks.
Europe took it and made it amazing.
America suddenly got overcome with white guilt and let memerap take over.
Now they're trying to play catch up.

Electronic music in America is a bunch of corporate watered down bullshit, people go to the festivals for the spectacle and not the music.
Basically they forced the idea that EDM is the music of millennials so that they could make money off of them.
A bunch of dude bros who think skirllx is hardcore or a bunch of dumb sluts wearing a neon native american headress and yelling wooooo.
Electronic music much like every great thing was destroyed by casuals.

we started it faggot, but we needed to keep the momentum going
i actually appreciate the fact that patrish dance music has been relegated to underground scenes in bigger cities
and this is coming from somebody who lives hours away from the nearest city where i could possibly find a tolerable club.

The funny thing is, it's mostly dutch producers who dominate american edm

The purveyors of European cheese are always ready for any bandwagon to jump on - they did it in the mid-late 90s with the trance explosion too.
These people are careerists first and foremost - they push products to a waiting market and adapt to changes in taste rather than influence them.

What is more alarming though is the move by US commercial rap production teams into EDM - I've no idea why I find it more disturbing since their focus was always on the monies but it just seems more tacky.
