I make quite a bit of Electronic Dance Music wrapped with my love, time, logic and effort. I got involved with this when I was about 13 and started entertaining wonderful people around me. My way of expression through music, experimenting with music and in short, I make anything and everything that captures heart.
So, they call me Wild Gypsy
It's fun to meet new people and stay connected with them. I'm usually uploading my creations twice a month; 15th and 30th and plan to continue so. Enjoy my music; kindly support and subscribe.
I need a safe place in your heart. Love you all
Music has come to occupy a considerably important place in the lives of young people ever since the emergence of rock and roll in the 1950's. In the modern society, there are seemingly endless applications for generic music, ranging from public campaign to advertising.
But, for an energetic young crowd, all they just want is something that makes them dance. Dance music is a broad term that includes many different styles of music. A specific style that refers to any kind of music which is created specifically for people to dance to the tunes. Considering that music is very personal and its uses are subjective, it will be hard to distinguish dance music from other types and to pinpoint its exact differences. During 1930's, town hall dances and dance competitions were a popular form of entertainment for which music was also often specifically written. Swing music was often created to accompany the high energy dance movement of the same name. Throughout the 1930's, 40's, and into the early 50's, swing music was a wildly popular form of big band jazz that generally accompanied high energy dancing.
The popularity of swing music styles began to decline with the emergence of rock and roll and rhythm and blues music in the mid-to-late 1950's. Though not specifically produced for the purposes of making people dance, the rhythms, melodies, and composition of 1960's soul and rhythm and blues lent itself well to dancing and good times. Entering into the 1970's, the concept of dance music changed considerably and eventually disco, which would ultimately reshape the way that we all think about dance music started gaining acceptance.
Emerged during the late 1960's and early 70's in New York City, Disco is characterized by heavy bass lines, strong beats, and the incorporation of early electronic instruments like the synthesizer. The word is derived from the French term discotheque, a name given to nightclubs in France during the 1960's and eventually in other parts of Europe. By the mid-70's, disco had reached the mainstream through strong radio play of singers like Donna Summer, Gloria Gaynor, and ABBA.
By 1977, disco was at its peak with the music charts being dominated by disco singers and the box office success of the film Saturday Night Fever. Towards the end of the decade, disco had become so influential that it started to influence rock and pop artists like Rod Stewart. Disco had dominated the music charts for the last half of the 1970's, but by 1980 enthusiasm for the genre had begun to diminish.
During the first half of the 1980's, keyboards and electronic drum kits figured prominently in a number of hugely successful records. Electronic Dance Music is composed for people to interact with it. EDM demands a sense of belonging and allowing oneself to get lost in the music, whether through a sound system or sound effects that populates some experimental electronic music. EDM is created to engage our perceptions, there is no one clear-cut way to analyze it. Differing ideas, concepts, and viewpoints can be used in conjunction with one another to generate a number of ways to better understand what is happening within the music. Electronic dance music encourages us to hear it in a variety of ways and this multiplicity functions on many different levels. Individual patterns in EDM are often intrinsically ambiguous.
When listening to electronic dance music, the listener may become aware of a fascinating paradox. Though the music is based on the repetition of only a few patterns, it can still be very engaging of ones perceptions. In other words, the music seems to be constantly moving forward while actually standing still. Though some listeners may become uninterested by the stagnant use of the repetitions of these few patterns, other more attentive listeners may take notice of the several interesting metrical phenomena that occur within the organization of the patterns and their repetitions.
It is precisely due to this personalized aspect which is so central in the electronic imagination, a continuous push towards change exists, resulting in a magical feeling. Another aspect that characterizes experiences associated with electronic music is specifically the connection between music and the place where it is heard; the time it is played and the mood with which it is listened.
