Note: an expanded version of this article – with a much longer video and a longer discussion – is located here.

Talk about vocal trance? OK, this one is self-explanatory: when I was in Amsterdam for the 2012 Amsterdam Dance Event, I attended a nice one-hour-long panel with Armin van Buuren, where he talked about his career and about Electronic Dance Music trends and things that affect EDM artists and the EDM industry worldwide. During this panel, Armin shared his traveling hurdles with the audience (consisting mostly of EDM artists attending the ADE): he arrived in Amsterdam only hours before he went to the ADE on October 17…..

BPMstr Week 3 Update: My Website Pains

Written by W G. Posted in -Everything, BPMstr Talk+News, For EDM Fans, For Producers+DJ's

Three Weeks Since my EDM Website Went up: Staying Busy

So, my website about Electronic Dance Music is up and people can go there… that is, if I gave them a business card. Other than that, no one will know that I am an aspiring EDM producer. What now? Well, I have 2 choices: I can do nothing (like so many talented EDM producers do!) and hope that God will help me get Google rankings because I am cool, or I can roll up my sleeves and understand the inner workings of the worldwide web. I chose the second method….

BPMstr.com Week 2 Update: ADE 2012 was a fun, engaging thrillride

Amsterdam Dance Event Has Ended and I Had a Great Time

Very well, ADE 2012 has wrapped up, and I had a wonderful time: I attended several excellent talk panels with EDM industry’s gurus. I hung out with Carl Cox. I interviewed the director of music for Last.fm Chris Price. I chilled with Danny Tenaglia, Armin van Buuren, Paul Oakenfold, Laidback Luke….

ADE 2012 DAY 4 (AMSTERDAM DANCE EVENT)

ADE 2012 DAY 4: More to come

Featured: Laidback Luke - ADE 2012 Day 4Day 4 of the ADE 2012 (Amsterdam Dance Event) was as good as the other three: I learned a lot, I got motivated, I met cool people, and I partied. Again, I wish I had the time to upload all the video materials, but that takes a little bit of time because publishing them is a long and CPU-consuming and bandwidth-killing process. I have well over 10 videos all in all, and all of them will be published in the next 7 days – immediately upon my return to the USA. And this is why I say that ADE 2012 may be over soon, but fresh content will be coming up on BPMstr.com for at least a couple of weeks afterwards…..

ADE 2012 Day 3: EDM Full-Throttle

ADE 2012 DAY 3 Featured ImageSo, Day Three was very busy because it got really technical for me. There were many cool opportunities to learn about the Electronic Dance Music Industry and about its players, its pitfalls and its opportunities. Everyone talked about festivals, and about moving toward harder and faster styles, and about effects of the global economy on industry trends. I now understand how managers and booking agents work, what recording studios and publishers can and cannot do for me as a music producer in the EDM genre, and I understand who is looking for new talent and their criteria for choosing new artists to work with…..
