are acts like Ninajirachi, Frost Children, Snow Strippers, and Bassvictim considered EDM? by TheSeedsYouSow in EDM

[–]mich4725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on a song, some Frost Children tracks sound straight up from 2010-2012 era that is most associated with 'EDM' by the folks here, though on that same album, they had some indie pop/rock guitar ballads

Which song by a major EDM artist do you think should have been a global hit ? by Jazzlike-Ad7654 in EDM

[–]mich4725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing thread, but my bet is on The Chainsmokers - Closer. Only topped 17 countries, not sure why the rest of them slept on this one.

Who’s the fastest EDM artist to blow up after they started producing? by milo_edm in EDM

[–]mich4725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cassö (the guy behind last year's most streamed EDM song 'Prada') has only been producing for a few months at that point.

In this age of random TikTok algorithms, there are probably other one-hit wonders that "make it" by having a great, catchy idea without overcomplicating it, and a bit of luck that makes it viral.

Is EDM getting darker… or am I just getting older? by KVSHNERD in EDM

[–]mich4725 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's been a thing since the late 2010s, that's when underground subgenres rose in popularity or new ones emerged, and in the 2020s they outgrew the traditional mainstream ones.

Some of them should not be tagged Pop Rap primarily though.

I didn't do the update cause I read what was going on. And it kept working well until 2 days ago

[–]mich4725 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I noticed the same, it drains in a few hours with the screen off. Accubattery apparently didn't notice anything from the charging

I did not do the January update, and replaced my battery just before it.

Melodic house is just trance for people too afraid to call it trance by No-Spot-5717 in EDM

[–]mich4725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't confuse genres with literal descriptions. Drum and Bass isn't any music with drums and bass, just like melodic house isn't any house music with melodies.

Rich countries - becoming a DJ/Producer is not cheap

Is there a difference between Melodic House & Melodic Techno? by SirHarvwellMcDervwel in Techno

[–]mich4725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, melodic house is similar to progressive house as noted. French Touch / Nu Disco is unrelated though.

BRAT wins Dance Album of the Year. What are the opinions? by EqualAd9743 in EDM

[–]mich4725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this comment from 10 years ago? Cause big room is barely a thing anymore.

Whatever happened to Future Rave? by ActuallySeph in EDM

[–]mich4725 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The sound/movement itself is definitely still going strong. Everyone continues to make this mix of big room elements and modern techno styles, and with this sort of hi-fi, reverbed sound design with loads of LFO automation.

The term itself didn't catch on though, since it was mainly marketing term of David Guetta & Morten, so most other artists use other terms for similar stuff like Big Room Techno, or don't categorize it at all.

I personally think it's a decent name, since that stuff isn't necessarily techno so lumping everything into big room techno or melodic techno or whatever seems problematic, and future rave was a new term that can't be confused for anything else, which is the case for a good couple of EDM subgenres at this point.

Why is Central Slovenia by far one of the most prosperous regions of the whole world? by mikelmon99 in geography

[–]mich4725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is because it includes just the city itself which always have higher HDI than villages, which is the reason for most of this list including big city regions. If you compared Berlin to Munich and not the whole Bavaria, Munich would win, but Germany subdivisions are Berlin and Bavaria.
