Evolution of Electronic Dance Music
«The Evolution of the Electronic Dance Music provides a much needed update in popular music studies on Electronic Dance Music as an umbrella music genre on the rise since the new millennium. This volume gives the reader a very precise understanding of the music itself focusing on its history and its evolution into different ramifications. It also explores the topics of global stardom in electronic music; of genre, sexism and age in club cultures. It then takes us to different dance music scenes across Europe to further our understanding of this ever-evolving music genre. An insightful journey into the world of EDM.»

«This is a very important book for scholars who are interested in all things EDM. This authoritative yet accessible collection of chapters covers the history, production processes and aesthetics of EDM across countries. Illuminating case studies bring the topic to life by addressing not only current issues such as ageism and sexism, but also aspects related to EDM stardom.»

«The Evolution of Electronic Dance Music is a deep academic work of great richness that clearly details much of dance music's long history. I wish I'd had this text when I wrote my dissertation on club culture – it's a must read for anyone interested in the genre.»
