I’m specifically talking about build-ups.
Yes or no?

Firstly Trap EDM is Trap EDM, Trap music is a form of rap that largely is what people call mumble rap (gucci mane is a pioneer of trap).

If you mean Trap EDM, the answer is maybe. In my experience hardstyle and dubstep are far worse than trap and have even less delayed gratification but other styles like techno and chill lo-fi are slower paced.

I had to edit the title quite a bit so it would fit, hence the mistakes. 

Our experiences are almost the complete opposite. 
The music I listen to from start till drop ranges from 40s to 1:30m . Whilst EDM trap I’ve heard takes like 15 seconds. 
By the way I would call lofi electronic but no way EDM. Techno has a wide range of sub-genres both fast and slow just as dubstep.

Do you want to unblock me RM?

Not really, I blocked you for a reason and you didn't even apologise.

This entire thread is toxic as fuck but it wasn't me who reported it.

Your thread is essentially saying that the purpose of EDM is to not be dancable or listenable and torture and tease the listener and that only those who endure shitty overly long buildups are 'real EDM fans'.

I view it as childish, but alright. You were the first to troll.
I could have blocked you first and acted as if I have the high ground, but no I didn’t. 
What do you mean this thread is toxic? And what about a report?

Your thread is essentially saying that the purpose of EDM is to not be dancable or listenable and torture and tease the listener and that only those who endure shitty overly long buildups are 'real EDM fans'.
Why the negative attitude? You were impartial before but now your cynical. I doubt you listen to much EDM anyhow.

I listen to EDM, especially Trap EDM that is literally my fucking genre of pure love. the pop music I like is either blues stuff or Trap EDM stuff usually (sometimes soft indie stuff but that's usually blues vibe as well).

These are some of my alltime fave jams:


These all incorporate many trap EDM elements

RatMan is a blocker.

A crazy mixed up f**ker.

Always makes me smile.

His resistance is futile

Just like the Weaker

Can't turn down the speaker.

Gotta lot to say 

But in their own pretentious way.

So what you say is boring

But they're no good at ignoring.
