Nothing to be sorry about, I quite share your views :P
Not a fan of EDM either, I love good House and Techno music and I don't know if I'd personally call what I love to share and mix EDM, that word means something else to me.
In fact could it be that I can change your views on electronic music? :) If not, all good, any music that makes people happy is good music, so I never judge people's music preferences ♥️
I'm down for some referrals! Sorry if I mixed them up -- I really know nothing about the genre. :) I like Flume-y, glittery music. I just have bad experiences with live electronic music -- it makes me anxious :(
I thought Flume was very much so considered EDM 🤔 See, that's what I mean, this whole label thing is no good 🤣 But yea, if you like Flume, then probably I can't give much recommendation, I am into more of an opposite of glittery music heh. But I just meant check out some of the Tune of the Day posts on my blog, pretty subjective of course, but I like to think I have a decent nose for some good electronic stuff.
But now I am curious, maybe you could throw a couple of names into my hat, I like expanding my horizons!
Hahaha yes, but he is like my threshold of EDM that my ears can take -- lots of lyrics. I think what happens is when I can feel the artist manipulating my energy up and down through drops, I get overwhelmed. At least at live shows. Flume never really drops that hard so I can take it, plus it's glittery lol! I will check out your posts, though.
As for my taste, I mostly listen to rap. I really liked Vince Staples' album Big Fish, which had some beautiful production! I also listen to a lot of J Dilla which is nearly all instrumental. :)
J Dilla is amazing, as a producer, I respect him immensely for the kind of stuff he did and the amount of passion he put into music. Truest inspiration! I will check out Vince Staples' stuff as you definitely have an eclectic taste in music.
The electronic music I personally love is more of a deeper, darker kind perhaps, more mellow and introspective, less of a "in-your-face" sound design, but more minimal and atmospheric, or in case of Techno just raw and hypnotic :) So I often suggest people give a more traditional house and techno a try if they got into electronic music via festival EDM :)
