Electronic music is becoming ever popular these days, however, there is also visible movement against it as certain people say that creating music digitally takes the skill out of the performance. Some say that it is a good genre because anyone with a laptop and headphones (and a good source of money bc equipment ain't cheap!) can express themselves musically and possibly become a hit. Still others are hardened against the music because of its sound. They don't like the harsh sounds that come from artists like Skrillex or Infected Mushroom. The fact is though, there are so many different styles of electronic music that are not as harsh and even quite melodic. I like some songs that my family and such think are awful but as a musician, I'm so interested by the choices in tempo, melodies and harmonies, sounds, effects, and feel of these songs that I cant help but be intrigued by them. Below I'll put some examples of just a few of the many types of electronic music that there are. Something that also amazes me (as I'm moving to thinking about producing electronic music of my own) is that electronic music artists usually have to create each sound in their songs. That means, you know that airy lead synth or that wobble bass that you hear in classic examples of dubstep? The artist had to create that sound from scratch. It's quite a process but a lot of fun. I had better stop now before I write an essay on electronic music lol.
Here is the list of songs I've compiled. I tried to give a wide range of songs here but you don't have to listen to all of them because I know there are a lot.
That's all the genre's main types I can think of offhand. If you guys think of any, I'd love to explore a new type of electronic music! I'll add them to the list if you give me a song. Do you like electronic music? If so? what is you're favorite type? If not? What don't you like about it?

(this is theharder side of dubstep)
