EDM is what I ascribe to as the sort of commercial stuff at big commerical festivals like EDC usually in the USA, encompassing US dubstep/brostep, electro house, a lot of trance. Really hyperactive and obvious, no subtlety, all about getting that big fucking drop or that dirty bassline. Tends to be extremely commercial and hugely about superstar DJs and conventionally hot people posting their outfits on Instagram. Like, brooooooo. David Guetta, Aviici, Excision, etc. Not denying it can't be fun if you're fucked up enough, but it has completely and utterly lost any semblance of being a counterculture or challenging or underground. Not my vibe at all. I know "EDM" has a literal definition but this is what I mean when I'm talking about it, hope that helps :)
