The more I listen to house and techno (stuff from the 80s to now...that proper stuff) the less I can stomach that "EDM" crap. It all sounds the same (same buildups, breakdowns, effects, stock sounds, samples, etc) and seems so soulless to me. And the festival scene...
It's all about "PUT YOUR HANDS UP IN THE AIR!!!" "MAKE SOME F*CKING NOISE!" "EVERYBODY JUMP!!!!!!"
DJs with their arms stretched out doing that stereotypical pose behind the tables. Candi kids...girls with annoying furry boots on wearing next to nothing...bros trying to start mosh pits...everybody being an e-tard with their "Party with Sluts" and "Mary. Molly. Lucy" t-shirts...
Just give me some classic soulful house like this...maybe some classy female vocals (I don't like it when it gets too divaish though)..and I'm good
I hear the future of humanity in that music...that universal soul. There's a reason that house music is popular worldwide...no language barrier...just groove.
EDM is wack.
That black influenced house is THE shyt.
I'm talking that shyt you go to find chicks with at least masters degrees and natural hair and shyt
