When EDM started to get big in late 2011 (when the term started to become widely recognized and used) due to major events like Electric Daisy Carnival, Etd.Pop, and lovefest, a whole bunch of foids started to join the scene and ruined the trance scene forever. Instead of artists composing quality productions, we started to hear big room crowd pleasing songs over and over again. Low quality crap to please the crowd and sell as much tracks/albums as possible. Also with top40 radio hits samples mixed into the sets. It was never called EDM, it was always recognized as trance or dance music.
Before 2011, the trance music scene was never called EDM and it was mostly nerdy incel dudes like myself who enjoyed listening to it alone to meditate and occasionally going out to the venues here in SF to listen. It never had that much foids dressed up in candy gear or whatever trying to showoff. It was always mostly nerdy dudes who genuinely enjoyed trance music. I remember even going back to 2015 at club Mezzanine here in SF, a small venue. It was at least 80% dudes. Now its like 50+ percent foids and the music sucks now. The scene was such a huge relief just to be away from top40 music listeners, hip hop and indie rock hipsters. Now I can tell some of those ghetto foids, indie listeners have infiltrated the trance scene and rebranded it EDM with their shitty tastes, vibes, and attitudes.
Then you meet some of the foids and their tastes are just awful low quality mainstream stuff. Its always some bs combination of The Chainsmokers, Calvin Harris, Rufus Dusol, Aviici, top40 bullcrap.
Foids absolutely butchered the trance scene and genre.
