An introduction to:
- What is EDM(Electronic Dance Music)?
- What is Electronic Music?
- What are EDM Genres?
- What's the difference between Top 4 EDM Genres: House, Trance, Trap, and Dubstep.
As a huge EDM fan who always go to all kinds of EDM events or festivals, I always get asked by my friends,
"Hey, Ruxi. What is EDM? Why are you so into it?"
Therefore, I decided to spend some time on making this video so that many more people could understand EDM and start to listen to EDM, because EDM has brought so much positive energy to my life, and I hope more people could be positively impact by EDM.
Please feel free to leave any comments or feedbacks on the video to help me make my "RuxiEDM" channel better, and your Likes & Subscription will be much appreciated :)

do you have discord i m Make a EDM, Electronic From Country Music

@@Nikkie_jurnigan I don't have a discord yet. Unfortunately

[@HalfBreedMix]

You have great taste lady, Vocal Trance is also my favorite because the tracks on an album actually seem like "songs" and not just "filler" to keep people on the dance floor.

[@user-rc9pi2nw2o]

Old vocal trance was best edm like mysterius time sash but now they realy ruin vocal

[@ryu8067]

I have been listening to music for 22 years, now it makes sense. Thanks to you :)

[@scmtuk3662]

There's a very simple reason why house music is most commonly 128 bpm. Divide 128 by 4, to get 32 measures/bars per minute. Intro for 8 bars (0:00 - 0:15) Verse for 16 bars (0:15 - 0:45) Build up for 8 bars (0:45 - 01:00) And therefore, the actual drop is _exactly_ at 01:00 (one minute). Although not many 128 bpm tracks actually do this exactly. Sometimes the drop is actually earlier, or later. What is true however, is that at exactly 01:00, it will most likely be the beginning of a measure (that is not counting any silence at the beginning of the track obviously).

[@conordorney217]

What I love so much about edm is how varied it is. There is a style for everyone!!! Great video for teaching new listeners the basics of edm. Also, drum and bass represent

[@conordorney217]

@Lloyd Frayne totally agree with you. It's a shame a lot of new dance music listeners don't know the roots of dance like early dubstep, happy hardcore, jungle etc. Always good to see another dance music lover who knows their stuff

[@35wonderstreet]

This is an absolutely great explanation. Thanks for sharing!

[@Nemo_Anom]

Not really knowing the genres until now, I guess I like trap the most. I also like chillstep and melodic chillstep, too, which are subgenres of dubstep.

[@ninutat]

Great Video!! And very interesting presentation! But, I am still having difficulty in identifying my track's genre! It is definitely EDM, but for house music it has more prominent bass and lead riffs!! No vocals makes it Techno House. How do I tag it properly ?

[@maxmusic2.075]

nice video

[@NeoTheBeggar]

thanks, that was an easy and cool explanation. I know know that i always completely missinterpreted the genre of trance... :D cool content. Just the quality of the video is not the best, but thats just a minor minus :) i'll check out your other videos now. cheers.

[@afrobian1]

What would be the genre of the music of Tim Schaufert, Azaleh and Sublab? Thank you for this video

[@SkyDomeVIZE]

My question is what would you consider Jai Wolf sound to be ?

[@michaeltyborski4802]

Thank you for being an excellent presenter. This video topic was very useful. While looking at vendor guides, I did not find definitions of EDM or IDM. Your video came up during my research. FYI Please improve your microphone placement to eliminate the "distant" sound. Rode sells a powered DSLR hot shoe mic that should help. It's under $200. You may also want to invest in a green screen and second camera. See Guy Michelmore's channel for examples of multiple cameras and microphones. He is a film music composer.

[@Jonny-wt3rg]

Just found Monolink. Amazing

[@user-pl5rr4ij4v]

Bangarang is my favourite of all the songs❤️

[@SuperTonyony]

Steve Martin said that talking about music is like dancing about architecture.

[@Crowned-Qwesi]

Lovely take. I've been listening to edm all along but I didn't know what it is until I saw someone say "nice edm tune". I went like "what's edm?". He laughed. I felt stupid. I seemed like its always there but I called it all pop.

[@klohr311]

before EDM there was seperate genre...but now EDM just combine all these types of music into 1..kinda like rock..rock has alot of sub genre from heavy to alternate to garage..

[@niemand7811]

There were always separate genres in electronic music. It is funny that you think the invention of the acronym "EDM" changed anything. Oh it did change a thing. It brought the frat boys to electronic musis, making low key producers justify selling their low tier crap now for high ticket prices. That joke is on you if you ever attent such festivals.

[@gerardomtz92]

Above and beyond 😭

[@alphatrancegenezy12]

I remember is a mix to trance progressive

[@MustafaAli-lb8dq]

Vocal Trance is also my favourite

[@FDE-fw1hd]

I feel like electro and bigroom is different enough from the other sg of house that it should be another sg

[@Eagle_66]

EDM is just a business. The main idea is to sell. It can not be compared to trance. EDM is very simple music. It's like taking any song and add some synth and that's all. Nothing to do with real electronic music.

[@ElectricAlien577]

Trance is danceable electronic music. Danceable Electronic music is electronic dance music. Electronic dance music is EDM. Trance is EDM. I reject the notion that EDM is its own genre, separate from all other genres of electronic dance music.

[@-zephyressence-2018]

After watching this I know I'm definitely more of a house and trance girl.

[@cristianmadalindima485]

I also like and prefer Trance as yoooouuuu!

Well, there's a pattern to trap drums. Snare goes on the 3, unlike hiphop with snare on the 2.
