Man, some people here are ignoring the fact that the VAST MAJORITY of these superstar cheeseballs are not from the US.
Let's start with the number one cheeseball DJ, probably of all time (if we ignore paul okenfold's haircut) he speaks english just like arnold schwarzenegger, you guessed it. He is not from the states.

I've been a fan of Dance music for years...what it seems is that it has its ebb and flow...quality is still out there being made. This will pass eventually and come back around later.

Huh, if ukit's list is anything to go by, I don't like EDM either - but my impression is that electronic music of the not entirely idiotic kind is not only alive and well but is just getting betterer and betterer.
*shrugs*
Mind you, ukit's list appears to consist of the current generation of ridiculous saccharine teen pop that every music sub-/generation has to endure.

How is dance music ever not electronic?
Why are Americans so bad at this?
- sorry, but that's almost the most ignorant question I've heard in a long time... disco?monospaced
- there was electricity for disco.refunktion
- are you suggesting dancing was invented in the 80s?scarabin
- Disco music is traditionally not created electronically.monospaced
- Disco isn't "Dance" music. You're American, you wouldn't get itanimatedgif

Couldn't care less if the whole "EDM" is dead, the artists that I like are still producing amazing music so I don't care!

A similar question to refunktion's (and certainly a mark of my age):
What's the difference between this EDM, and EBM (e.g.: Front 242-style)?

the fuck is EDM?
- its a shorter way to describe 'electronic music'Miguex
- doesn't the term dance music negate the electronic part?refunktion
- more like "emerican dance music"prophetone
- Listen to a few of these and you'll get the idea:
http://blogs.westwor…ukit2 - It's cheesy recycled dance music mixed with pop vocalsukit2
- hey man, I'm pretty sure there's PLENTY cheesy artists in europe doing the same thingMiguex
- probably more than in the US actually.Miguex

Cause I'll be kicking the flavor that makes you wanna Jump
How high? Real high
Cause I'm just so fly
A young loveable, huggable type of guy
And everything is the back with a little slack
Cuz inside-out is wiggida wiggida wack
I come stompin' with somethin' pumpin' to keep you jumpin'

In the mix I make ya take a step back
They try to step to the Mac then they got jacked
To the back you'll be sportin' the gear that's coincidental
And like you know it so don't be claiming that it's mental
Two lil' kids with a flow you ain't ever heard
And none faking you can understand every word
As you listen to my cool school melody
The Daddy makes you J-U-M-PJump Jump
