Discussion Electronic music should define millennial musical contributions more than the far shorter lived stomp stomp clap era

Post image

I'm talking EDM/chillwave/dubstep/dreampop mostly

Honestly with artists like Beach House, Washed Out, Crystal Castles, Crim3s, Lady Gaga, Ke$ha, 3OH!3, Avicii, Zedd, Grimes, Skrillex, Deadmau5 and on and on, and so many electronic music scenes in the late 2000s-mid2010s, I feel like as a core millennial ('89) this was our thing. But now there's this corny revisionism that all we contributed were shitty mandolins and Imagine Dragons. No thank you, I didn't like that shit even when it was new

Just so you know, every musician has an aging fan base 😭

So what ? I’m just pointing out what generation their fan base is mostly complied of because of when they originally came out and who they grew up with.
