The Electro Vibe Is Spreading.

Is Electro music finally becoming recognised?

I say this because when I switch on the music channels or the radio, it seems like Pop and Hip Hop songs are increasingly using Electronic music as their basis now.

But is this a good thing?

I never hold myself to any high standard or pretentiousness but in some ways, it’s sickening to hear how so many artists are using dirty Electro basslines, filter effects and 4/4 beats as their background music nowadays.

The real stem of the problem is that it gives a false representation of the Electronic music genres.

Take the Black Eyed Peas for example...

Now this piece of garbage has almost 100,000,000 views on YouTube and counting. It is a 'tune' that has a cheesy bassline that doesn't do the true genre of Electro any favours at all. Not to mention the lyrics are a cover of a rubbish Pop song.

Music like this should not be credited. It is a bad attempt at creating a commercialised version of Electro music. The true Electro giants should deserve credit where it's due...

Take this for example...

Or even this...

Now these are genuine Electro tunes, however do not get the recognition they deserve from the mainstream public. Dirty, filthy basslines are what we crave and by listening to that Poppy/Electronic/RnB/Hip Hop disaster of a mash up, the public are being led to believe that Electro music is cheap and tacky.

Although having said that, people like this are idiots anyway, so it's probably a good thing because it keeps them out of our clubs where the true Fidget Electro heads are at.

Rant over!
