No genre is superior, I just think that EDM is harder and more fun to make. And they didn't know what Clipping sounded like lmao - I hate it when people who don't produce judge certain genres lol
Not implying anything about this specific situation but I think this needs to be said somewhere:
I feel like belittling people for disliking certain genres is just as pointless as belittling people for liking certain genres. Music is a universal passion and I think everyone is entitled to voice what they do and don't like--as long as they are respectful obviously. Additonally, with us being producers, our judgement may be more clouded than a casual listener because our standards are higher
Reminds me in my days in school where a bunch of Heavy Metal freaks wanted to break my face because they heard from someone that I like New Wave music.
