Why do europeans love all kinds of EDM so much while americans don't?
>>
>>129478455
We do, it's just that EDM and house music took a different path in the US and developed into genres like Hip-Hop
>>
Americans need lyrics, it's where they get their poetry.
Euros just want to bounce up and down, and read poetry now and then.
>>
disco sucks
>>
>>129478455
there are still white people in europe
>>
>>129478455
Atari STs were big there.
>>
>>129478455
American men are much more insecure about their masculinity than Europeans and consequently put on a show of rejecting all culture that's not macho enough. Must be all the BBC they have to compete with.

How did is Americans get it soo wrong? Im literally seething over it.
>>
>>129481710
kek its true its barely any whites in usa doing edm. its always trannies or mexicans. guess they actually think kid rock is better than daft punk
>>
europe used to have a strong club culture
>>
because back in the 80s and 90s, the US was still making really good rock music and started making hip hop, so if you liked beats, you listened to hip hop.
other than the UK, europe never made any good rock and roll, and they didn't really make any hip hop until later. so all they had going for them was discotheques.
>>
>>129481756
most trans people are white?
>>
>>129478455
because we live in a fake, sterile society. there is no real freedom, no depth, no nature. just like EDM.
>>
This might have been true in the 90s but EDM is wildy popular in the US.
>>

>>129483381
giga slop. eew. listen to weezer or something and ground yourself with real music.
>>
>>129483404
>weezer
lol
>>
>>129483414
accessible example of real music. listen to the blue album and not this abysmal daw creation for 13 year old gamers.
>>
>>129483421
weezer is garbage, unc
>>
>>129483444
>unc
epin gamer internet edm slop is terribly dated and incel/millennial-coded. absolute pussy repellent. weezer works fine.
>>
Americans cant dance
>>
>>129483456
lmao no pussy gets wet if you tell them you listen to weezer in your attic
>>
listen to some real shit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNBXyHZE45Y
>>
>>129483461
it's at least neutral, it's rock dude. you're out of touch if you listen to edm lmao
>>
>>129483531
no young slutty women go to rock concerts, they go to edm festivals
>>
>>129483555
kek maybe in eastern euro shitholes. all the urban zoomer hotties only care for rock these days.
>>
>>129483575
lmao rock has never been more dead than now
>>
>>129483589
lol it absolutely was dead 10 years ago. I interact with all the hotties in uni and it's outright embarrassing if you listen to edm or rap there. not even talking about all the alt girls. rock/ album era stuff is by far the most prestigious taste in real middle class/upper middle class urban western europe.
>>
>>129483613
LOL zoomgroids all listen to rap
>>
>>129483631
white urban girls? some do but it's fading. rock is prestigious as fuck. deftones and slowdive concerts are flooded with 17yo zoomer hotties.

lol, the opposite
>>129480587
yuros are the ones who love that gay shit
>>
>>129483221
a. please don't call them people
b. trannies were invented by a german so it's person of color culture, not white culture
>>
>>129483733
why would yuros listen to white people music?
>>
>>129483835
europe is 86% white. usa is 51%
>>
>>129484043
100% of all the white people in the world live in the USA
>>
>>129484047
a painful truth
>>
>>129478455
blacks can't produce it
>>
>>129489206
they must be able to produce it if it's made in yurop. are you saying arabs and jeets are making the edm?
>>
EDM is the perfect sound for plastic social democrat Euro cunts like Sweden. Americans expect some kind of soul in their music.
>>
>>129490274
this. europe is artificial as fuck. our music reflects that. a lot of stuff we are into is also entertainment-coded and theatrical.
t. german
>>
>>129490274
it's funny though because they would also circlejerk to boomer pop singers like Ediaf Piaf and whatnot but when you put on their music it was the cheesiest Schlager tier nursery rhyme nonsense
>>
>>129490372
That’s what I meant by theatrical and entertainment-driven. Boomers here care about corny stage performances and football-tier pop hooks.

America tried that type of music in the 50s it was just as cheesy and painful. The ironing is that's exactly what British pop music was back then as well until they discovered black guys from the South with guitars. They were not any better than France or Sweden pre-Beatles.
>>
>>129490418
That type of music was a product of the Tin Pan Alley machine in NYC and NYC always had close cultural ties to Europe so favored really theatrical slop performances. All the good 50s music that is remembered today came out of the South.

>tfw americans try to make fun of schlager when theyre forced to listen to kendrick, bad bunny and kid rock
>>
>>129490479
>when theyre forced to listen to kendrick, bad bunny and kid rock
I've literally never heard a kendric lamar or bad bunny song and the only kid rock songs I know are the sweet home alabama one, the ball with the ball and the one from ozzy and drix where he sings about how much he enjoys statutory rape
>>
>>129490418
yeah the 50s pop music of america reminded me of the schlager my grandpa listened to.
>>
>>129490514
>the one from ozzy and drix where he sings about how much he enjoys statutory rape
I've never heard this song. I think you're secretly a kid rock superfan.
>>
>>129490942
he sings it in osmosis jones and it's been a meme for the last few weeks
>>
>>129478455
What in the 2009 fuck is this entire thread?
Burgers have a ton of edm now.
It's just not The prominent thing because
1) Dance pop and Hip Hop repeatedly reabsorb EDM Elements
2) All of NA natively speaks a mutually intelligible English dialect whereas big EDM exporting EU nations like Sweden or the Netherlands talk in a completely unpalatable goblygook
3) Europe has better drugs

dance music died in america when disco died, it ended up going underground and being a niche thing liked by homosexuals and middle class black people. the first time they tried to market electronic music to people it was gen x, they called it "Electronica" and it featured djs like aphex twin, fatboy slim, daft punk, chemical brothers, crystal method, moby, etc
It was only minorly successful.

Then around 2010s rock and guitar music died and They decided to market electronic music agian, this time with wubstep, and they called it EDM, it was complete garbage, corporate slop for dude bros who would have been listening to korn if they had been born a decade prior

i didnt like it personally but this was the most mainstream electronic music ever got in america.

then it fell off, got replaced by hip hop and trap music.
>>
>>129491014
mufucka's never heard of michael jackson or madonna
>>
>>129491047
thats considered pop music even if they adopted electronic elements
>>
>>129491066
you said dance music. it's dance music.
>>
>>129490689
>>129490418
Euros back then in fact disliked American pop music they thought it was dangerously sexualized and Negro-ized, Schlager was pushed as a family-friendly alternative.
>>
>>129478455
It's cultural. EDM is for european retards, rap is for American retards, reggaeton is for South American retards. Exploring multiple genres of music causes their brains to short circuit.
>>
>>129491130
true
>>
>>129491130
you're not wrong
>>
>>129490274
So Christgau was right all along about ABBA?
>>
>>129491145
yes yes he was and Max Martin ruined pop music
>>
>>129483082
>other than the UK, europe never made any good rock and roll
Euro rock groups like the Scorpions always sounded as vapid as the pop music, they were good musicians from a technical POV but had nothing to actually say.
>>
>>129483458
that's true and there isn't even a dance thread on any board of 4chan and I wish there was
>>
>>129491488
checked

our liquor laws were written by crotchety old faggots and church deaconesses back in nineteen hundred thirty something so you can't stay open until 10 am the following day or build clubs near anything. kind of precludes any sort of rave culture from happening. gen xers didn't like the music either. everything else is secondary
>>
>>129491488
wsg has one.
ASP used to before gookmoot killed it
>>
>>129491654
the way the police acts in each country also has a lot to do with it.
in france they let you get away after a protest or something.. like a illegal rave. it is part of dey culture with the french revolution.

in the uk the police will go behind the turntable and might even play a track and then say "sorry lads is over"

in germany the policeforce will surround you from all sides and full gestapo so the rave culture mostly happened in places that were lawless when the wall came down.

in eastern urop it is very ravey and the policeforce is part of the scene :3

in america i feel it just doesnt happen because the police is way too aggressive.
