[divider]2. STAYING TRUE TO THE MUSIC[/divider]
Depending on who you’re talking too, EDM is either a dying movement, a growing revolution, or any and everything in between. To Chad and Dave, it makes no difference as long as there’s still music out there that connects with people. There are DJs and producers out in the world who concern themselves only with how “mainstream” dance music has become. Despite popular tracks getting played out on festival stages across the globe there, Tritonal sees an inescapable logic in this supposed downside.
You hear everybody complain that ‘everybody plays the same stuff at big festivals,’ or ‘everybody sounds the sound.’ If it’s an amazing record, don’t you want to play an amazing record in your set? It really all boils down to good music is good music.
Lately the in-vogue attitude to have in dance music is that the scene needs a major attitude readjustment. But as long as the mission is to create art that will resonate with its audience, the scene gets exactly what it needs to not only survive, but thrive. Chad even goes so far as to posit that “it shows that dance music is in a healthy place, because there are so many people making music.” From a sheer numbers perspective, we have a hard time disagreeing.
