Quark 7,016 Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 If you do your research you will find out that Aura is her only EDM release. And funny enough its not even her production, she bought the beat from infected mushroom (an actual EDM duo), Synthpop is a product of Electronic music, but it certainly is not EDM, nor a branch that belongs to it. Aura, Swine, Donatella, are just more electronic dance heavy. But most of her songs are electronic dance music. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Didymus 32,740 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 The thing is that you bring me facts, which I acknowledge to be facts, that don't change Gaga's impact. You keep saying how EDM was mainstream before Gaga, which is true, but the true popularization of dance music happened until after Gaga. Like you said, were are just going in circles here.Yet you can't back that up with evidence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbuHassan1992 766 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Synpop/dance pop is electronic dance music. So why is it not EDM?oh my god how are you still dodging ALL my questions. SYNTHPOP AND DANCE POP ISN'T EDM. EDUCATE YOUR ASS Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But most of her songs are electronic dance music.most of her songs aren't electronic dance music. They're dance pop that's electronic. There is a difference.

There is a difference.I know there is a difference. But to me dance pop is part of EDM since the whole point of a song being called EDM, is that they are electronic dance songs. I know many people do not consider these genres to be EDM. Only genres like house, trap, ect. Are consider EDM. But at the end of the day, my poiny was that Gaga was one of the main factor in the mass acceptance of electronic dance music in the U.S. The other genres of EDM were just a natural evolution of dance pop/synth pop.

Jjang 2,262 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Can you seriously tell me that they don't sound very similar? If they are so different why are manymany here making the connection between style and DWUW? They sound similar because of the bassline. Don't you understand that if it were different both songs would have sounded nothing alike? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like saying "to me, romcoms are action movies". Gaga wasn't the main factor in the mass acceptance of EDM in the US. She was riding a wave. She WAS not a pioneer, she was NOT the first artist to make electronic music and she was NOT the reason people started listening to EDM. People have been listening to EDM since the 90s, even before that. The other genres of EDM (as you put it) weren't natural evolutions of dance pop/synth pop. damn son you've got it all wrong. the other genres in EDM have been around for years and years, but only gained prominence lately in the mainstream, such as dubstep. Dubstep has always been there, but it was commercialized and pop'ed up and became mainstream, but not because of gaga. EDM has NOTHING to do with Dance and synth pop. It doesn't stem from pop music.

No matter what. Even Ellie Goulding's album Bright Lights can be considered EDM. I think the genre on Bright Lights is somewhat Synth Pop. hop on that **** like a maniac Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jjang 2,262 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 yeah, and the bassline isn't original at all, it's just playing a note every 8th note Its indeed a very basic pattern, but according to the OP its ahead of its time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because it's dance music that's electronic doesn't mean it's automatically EDM. Dance Pop music =/= EDM. It's a stupid term radio made up that's way too broad to cover all the genres within it.

Whatever you say. If a pop artist uses House influences, makes it a House type song with Dance music, that is Electronic, but also Pop, I will consider it EDM. I Can't Stop Drinking About You is just watered down dubstep/brostep but the pop element doesn't break it away from being EDM. hop on that **** like a maniac Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll keep listening to my EDM music (This song is listed as House on Beatport as well.) and you keep doing you aka being in denial and trying to preserve your genre's from being mixed with Pop hop on that **** like a maniac Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
