Dancefloor Renaissance: The Renewed Popularity of EDM

Description:

Electronic music has always been part of the cultural zeitgeist, but its influence has expanded dramatically over the last few years. From Beyoncé’s Grammy-winning house album Renaissance to the rise of hyperpop to Fred again.., Skrillex, and Four Tet’s seminal Coachella headlining set, electronic music has felt more accessible than ever.
