is bad but Joel is still /ourguy/
Trance needs more high tier composers, I see classically trained composers like Hamauzu compose better Trance than the god damn people in Trance... They make very simplistic melody.
It's not bad, its entertaining but it can be more you know.

Recently i listened to Oneohtrix Point Never - Tranquilizer
it was kinda good

in what way? he sounds incredibly uninspired as of late

>whats the state of modern '''''electronic music'''''''''
zoomers are still trying their hardest to make it entirely bass focused. i genuinely miss synths and melody

>>130006645
true. fuck the world of rhythm, the world of melody is where it's at. but there is less of it because it's harder to make. rhythm can be mass produced any retard can make
>beats

not music

>>130006613
pic rel is still the best

>>130006683
nah

What do you mean by """electronic music"""?

EDM? I dunno really, there's a DnB boyband now called WORSHIP

this year is actually one of the better years for electronic music in quite a while

entirely co-opted by privileged white industry plants

Techno is big, at least in Europe. DnB deep underground as well as hippie varieties of trance.

For me it's modern hardstyle

Lorn stopped releasing music, techno turned into soulless 150+ BPM pounding for tiktok zoomers, dnb has been shit for at least like 15 years, it's over.

not electronic music

What are /mu/'s thoughts on the recent hardgroove techno wave? I feel like it's pretty huge, at least in Europe and the UK. thinking of chlar, alarico, toobris, stuff freddy K plays etc

I love deadmau5 but that nigga fell off hard after 2019. It's no secret he's been on his way out for a while now which is understandable given his long career but if he wanted to keep releasing tracks for the fun of it or to pay bills he could have just refined some of his unreleased old works and easily made another killer album or two but instead he chose to make the most generic slop ever and market it like ass. It's almost like he's outsourced his whole brand to some bored team of zoomers and now he doesn't stand out from the endless sea of EDM producers at all anymore.

Leaning into his more experimental side would have been amazing:

It's absolute fucking garbage, and a mockery of techno

btw don't confuse corporate stadium hard techno with hardgroove - this is hardgroove

Re-jaded is unironically the best thing he's ever made.
