Jason Birchmeier said Don’t let the EDM subtitle dissuade you; essential reading for 1980s/1990s techno heads. I'd put off reading this book for a while because of the "EDM" subtitle, "How Electronic Dance Music Conquered America." Call me old fashioned (or simply old), but I don’t care for the Skrillex/Deadmau5 generation of music. I like my dance music spun on vinyl w/ two turntables and a mixer. I come from the Detroit/Berlin school of techno and the Chicago/New York school of house, where the DJ doesn’t jump around on stage and act like a rock star. Needless to say, the subtitle of the book alone made me tentative about reading it. I’d enjoyed one of Michaelangelo Matos’ books befor. K. Ryborz said My book arrived perfect. Clean cover. My book arrived perfect. Clean cover, no bends or frays. I was hooked upon reading the first few page excerpts.I loved the photos included and the in-depth history and knowledge by the author in regards to house music, EDM, techno, and legendary DJs and producers.I was honestly wishing the book would never end.. "Five Stars" according to George Hess. Well written.

Dance music’s growth took place largely away from the spotlight, in cross-pollinating scenes around the globe; Michaelangelo Matos tells these hidden histories with the love, care, and joy of a seasoned mage passing down spells to a trusted novice. In telling EDM’s story, Michaelangelo Matos takes in the rise of the Internet and Burning Man, 9/11, and the collapse of the record business, spotlights its legendary artists—including Frankie Knuckles, Moby, Diplo, Skrillex, Deadmau5, David Guetta, Tiësto, and Daft Punk—and vividly charts why and how it took nearly three decades after electronic dance music became a global youth soundtrack for it to hit big in the land that birthed it.“A staggering work of research, organization, and synthesis, yet Michaelangelo Matos ne
