It also has perturbed music traditionalist in recent years, and their worries made us wonder if we are losing the true essence of music in the name of music technological advancements.
EDM is at the forefront of this advancement, and for the uninitiated, anyone can make music in the comforts of his bedroom with just an audio software. This presents endless possibilities at everyone’s disposal. By taking away the need for actual musical instruments, one does not even need to master a single instrument to make music. This helps in keeping one’s stage dream alive – work hard, know the inside-out of the program, and one’s shining breakout moment may come.
